Forcepoint DLP Administrator Course

CODE: FPT_DLP-ADMIN

LENGTH: 24 Hours (3 days)

PRICE: Request Price

Description

During the three days, you will learn how to test an existing deployment, how to administer policies and reports, handle incidents and endpoints, upgrade and manage the Forcepoint DLP system. You will develop skills in creating data policies, building custom classifiers and using predefined policies, incident management, reporting, and system maintenance.

Objectives

Understand simple Forcepoint DLP product deployments

  • Create and use custom classifiers
  • Use predefined classifiers, rules and policies
  • Control various channels of potential data leaks – in TCP networking, discovery and by endpoint
  • Manipulate incidents and reports
  • Configure incident workflows using TRITON GUI or email
  • Perform the backup and restore

Audience

  • End-User/Customers: System administrators, network security administrators, IT staff
  • Channel Partners: Sales Engineers, consultants, implementation specialists

Prerequisites

None
