Material Security vs. Forcepoint Web Security

Material is the cloud workspace security platform for lean security teams that need to protect the email, data, and identities that live in Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. Material streamlines SecOps by unifying detections and automating remediations across your cloud workspace in one platform that gives you unprecedented visibility and control. Material stops sophisticated attacks, secures sensitive data in files and mailboxes, detects and contains account takeovers, and reduces risk across your environment. Your cloud workspace isn’t just another app.
