Websense Enterprise
v4.4, CyberGuard Firewall Edition
Used by more than
17,500 organizations worldwide, including 272 of the
Fortune 500, Websense Enterprise is the world's leading
employee Internet management (EIM) software solution.
Websense Enterprise v4.4, CyberGuard Firewall Edition
allows you to transparently analyze, manage and report
on traffic flowing from your internal networks to the
Internet. Using pass-through technology, it is tightly
integrated with the CyberGuard Firewall, giving you the
most accurate, reliable and scalable Internet filtering
solution available. Websense Enterprise is also easy to
install and administer.

Adaptive
Policy Management
Websense software
adapts to support your company's Internet access policy.
Featuring eight different flexible management options,
Websense Enterprise can be highly customized. In
addition to blocking and permitting access, other
features include:
-
Time-based
quotas
Balance
work-related vs. personal surfing while reducing the
burden on IT. With time-based quotas, you can permit
employees to access non-work-related sites for
limited, but appropriate amounts of time. For
example, permit access to banking and shopping sites
for up to 20 minutes per day.
-
Continue/defer
Let users choose to "continue" surfing
blocked sites they deem work-related or
"defer" personal surfing to non-work
hours. Deferred sites are bookmarked automatically
for employees at AfterWork.com, a free site hosted
and maintained by Websense.
-
Time of day
All filtering options can be set up by specific time
of day. For example, block access to shopping during
business hours and permit access at all other times.
-
Customized
Internet access policies
Set
up Internet access by user, group, department,
workstation or network. For example, customize
access by job function, such as Management vs.
Purchasing Department, or set up access for
individuals such as the CEO or VP of Marketing.
-
Complete
user/group support
Customize access policies based on users and groups
as defined in Windows NT 4, Windows 2000 Active
Directory (now with full native mode support) and
LDAP-accessible directory services (iPlanet and
Novell Directory Services). Logs and reports include
user and group names for easy analysis.
-
"Yes"
lists
When appropriate, use "yes" lists to allow
access only to specific sites. For example, allow
the Shipping Department to access only UPS and FedEx
sites.
Intelligent
Content Classification
Websense
utilizes the most advanced methods of collecting and
classifying Web content (patent pending).
-
Most
comprehensive, accurate database in the industry
More than 3.7 million sites, representing 800
million Web pages and 44 languages organized in 81
categories, provides comprehensive, accurate,
thorough Internet filtering.
