Email Security Gateway (V10000 G2)

This section contains information and instructions for installing Websense Email Security Gateway or Websense Email Security Gateway Anywhere based on a Websense V10000 G2 appliance. For a V5000-G2-based deployment see Email Security Gateway (V5000 G2).
The following illustration is a high-level diagram of a basic appliance-based deployment of Email Security Gateway. Note that this illustration is intended to show the general distribution of components and does not include network details (such as segmenting, firewalls, routing, switching, and so forth).
If your subscription includes Email Security Gateway Anywhere, you can enable the Websense hybrid email service. This is an in-the-cloud service that provides an extra layer of email scanning, stopping spam, virus, phishing, and other malware attacks before they reach the network and considerably reducing email bandwidth and storage requirements. You can also use the hybrid service to encrypt outbound email before delivery to its recipient.
The Websense V10000 G2 appliance provides the majority of Email Security Gateway functions. Incoming email flows from the hybrid email service (if enabled) to the Websense appliance and to your mail server.
A separate TRITON management server is required. TRITON management server is the term used to refer to the machine on which TRITON Unified Security Center is installed. This machine is used to manage your Websense deployment. It includes TRITON Infrastructure and any or all of the TRITON Unified Security Center modules (Web Security, Data Security, and Email Security). In the case of an Email Security Gateway deployment, the Data Security and Email Security modules are required. Email Security Log Server may also be installed on this machine (note that this component may be installed on another machine; it is not required to be located on the TRITON management server). Multiple instances of Email Security Log Server can be used in a deployment.
The Data Security module of the TRITON Unified Security Center works with the Websense appliance to provide email DLP (data loss prevention) features.
Microsoft SQL Server, running on a Windows server in your network, is used to store Websense logging, reporting, and some configuration data. Quarantined email are also stored here.
SQL Server must be obtained separately; it is not included as part of a Websense subscription. When installing Websense components, SQL Server must be installed and running, typically on its own machine as shown above. SQL Server Express (installed using TRITON Unified Security Setup) may be used in place of SQL Server. However, it is a best practice to use SQL Server Express only in non-production or evaluation environments.
The above link goes to general instructions for creating a TRITON management server. As you follow those instructions, choose to install both the TRITON - Email Security and TRITON - Data Security modules of TRITON Unified Security Center: when you reach the Installation Type screen, select Email Security (requires Data Security) under TRITON Unified Security Center. Data Security will automatically be selected along with Email Security, because it is required for Email DLP (data loss prevention) features.
The first time you access TRITON - Email Security, you are prompted for your subscription key. Then, you are asked if you want to use the First-Time Configuration Wizard. This wizard guides you through the process of entering essential configuration settings. It is strongly recommended you use this wizard. See the TRITON - Email Security Help for more information.
Important 
The Configuration Wizard is offered only once, at initial start up of TRITON - Email Security. If you choose to not use the Wizard it will no longer be available. All settings configured in the Wizard can be configured in TRITON - Email Security individually. The Wizard is simply offers a more convenient way to enter essential settings.
See the Getting Started section of the TRITON - Email Security Help for information on initial configuration. Be sure to complete the procedures for:
If your subscription includes Email Security Gateway Anywhere, configure the hybrid email service. See the "Registering for the hybrid service" topic in the TRITON - Email Security Help.
