Web Filtering
The majority of today’s online threats reside in legitimate and trusted Web sites — putting your business at serious risk of attack from even “harmless” surfing. On the other hand, overly strict IT policy controls can prevent workers from accessing the Web 2.0 applications and mash-ups they rely on to do their job. How can you tighten network security without hindering workforce flexibility and mobile information access?
Blue Coat helps you filter all the content coming into your organization through the Web gateway, so you can prevent malware outbreaks without compromising network performance. By combining best-practice Web filtering technology with the WebPulse community watch cloud service, Blue Coat helps you:
- Build a layered defense system that can prevent attacks and performance degradation from P2P traffic, malware and more
- Identify and block malware hosts and rate Web content in real time
