Forcepoint

Forcepoint is a data-first cybersecurity vendor whose platform spans Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Security Service Edge / SASE (Forcepoint ONE and Data Security Cloud | SSE), Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW), and web, email, and data security. For developers and security engineers Forcepoint exposes several product REST APIs — DLP policy management, SSE Config/Log/IP and SCIM 2.0 provisioning, the NGFW Security Management Center (SMC) API, and an Appliance management API — documented on help.forcepoint.com. Auth varies by product: OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens for SSE, API-key clients for the NGFW SMC, and basic/session auth for DLP and appliances. Forcepoint publishes official automation tooling including the fp-NGFW-SMC-python SDK (PyPI), Ansible modules, and a Terraform provider, and runs a public status portal and trust center (SOC 2, ISO 27001/27017/27018, CSA STAR, FIPS 140, GDPR).

Forcepoint publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Cybersecurity, Security, Data Loss Prevention, and SASE.

Forcepoint’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, support, engineering blog, authentication, and 14 more developer resources.
