The Forcepoint™ i-Series™ appliance is a component of Forcepoint TRITON AP-WEB with the Cloud Web Module. This web protection solution provides on-premises URL analysis and application/protocol detection for web traffic, along with centralized policy management and reporting capabilities in the cloud.
The i-Series appliance hosts the Forcepoint URL category master database, allowing the efficient analysis of web site request URLs. The appliance also provides protocol detection capabilities and policy enforcement.
When analysis indicates that a web request requires further examination, the appliance transparently routes that traffic to the cloud, where Forcepoint cloud service analytics are applied and policy is enforced. Management of on-premises appliances is also performed in the cloud.
