proxy.forcepoint

The proxy.forcepoint.access tag identifies all access log events generated by the Forcepoint web protection solutions. If you want to want to send other types of Forcepoint log events to Devo, contact Devo customer support.

For information about sending log events from Forcepoint, see the Forcepoint SIEM integration guide.

Tag structure

Devo currently supports the ingestion and parsing of the Forcepoint access log events using the tag proxy.forcepoint.access. 

To send Forcepoint events to Devo, you need to forward log events to the Devo relay where the tag will be applied, and the data securely sent to your Devo domain.

Forward the events from Forcepoint to the Devo relay

Set up the Devo relay rule

This simple type-1 relay rule applies the proxy.forcepoint.access tag to the events before forwarding them to Devo. In the example below, we use port 13003 but you should use any port that you can dedicate to these events - and it must be the same as you configured in Forcepoint.

  • Source Port → 13003

  • Target Tag → proxy.forcepoint.access

  • Check the Stop processing and Sent without syslog tag checkboxes.
