Websense® Content Protection Suite Endpoint Agent Installation

The Websense Content Protection Suite enables integration with the Safend Endpoint software. The Endpoint Agent monitors all endpoint traffic and sends possible violations to the Content Protection Suite for analysis, logging each violation in the Content Protection Suite and Endpoint event logs. To set up the Endpoint Agent, it must be added in the Content Protection Suite Manager and then installed on the Endpoint Server by running an installation wizard which registers the server with the Content Protection Suite. Once installed, modifications must be made in the Safend management interface to integrate content inspection from the Protection Suite.
