The contract
establishes a base, plus four option year agreement with an estimated purchase
volume of $23.5 million. Forcepoint’s full portfolio of integrated,
behavioral-based cybersecurity and cross domain solutions (software, hardware

The Forcepoint
portfolio supports FBI Enterprise and Mission objectives to include: increased
infrastructure efficiency, examination of emerging cyber technologies, adoption
