  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).
