High Performance “On-Proxy” URL Filtering Solutions for the
Enterprise
Countless Internet-based distractions compete for employee time
in the workplace. Non-work related activities including online games,
Internet shopping, stock trading, Internet radio, personal Web mail
and MP3 downloads lure users away from company work and expose the
company to spyware and other viral threats. Now, more that ever,
risks and threats originate from inside the network. Organizations
need to increase productivity by preventing inappropriate content
from being available in the work environment.
The ProxySG and Optenet enable organizations to manage, secure
and accelerate Web-based content. Blue Coat integrates scalability,
performance and Web content protection with a high quality URL database.
The Blue Coat solution allows organizations to effectively extend
URL filtering beyond traditional site blocking through the following
components:
- On-Proxy Filtering – A comprehensive database that
has organized millions of URLs into common categories that can
be selected for blocking access to URLs
- Performance platform – A proxy appliance provides
abundant policy controls wrapped in optimized hardware and a
custom operating system to give today’s organizations a proven
high performance option for gaining visibility and control over
their employee’s Web communications.
- Deep Content Inspection – URL filtering is not enough
for today’s Internet content challenges. For example, some Web
requests are for music, news, and Internet radio. Once a protocol
is identified, granular and global access policies can be deployed
with ease on the ProxySG. At the core of the Blue Coat Content
Filtering solution are Enterprise Policy Controls that extend
the functionality of standalone URL filtering by adding content
inspection and native proxy functionality for the most popular
Web protocols.
- Reporting and User Identification – Associating the
exact user with Web browsing behavior is a key requirement for
enterprise filtering and reporting. Customers need to positively
identify a user who has accessed or has attempted to access
a given Web site or download material from the Internet.
ProxySG and Optenet enable organizations to:
- Achieve up to a 10X performance gain by running the list
“on-proxy”
- Leverage URL Filtering for Web content threat protection
with unique ProxySG Enterprise Controls
- Simplify installation, management and administration of
URL filtering with an appliance solution
- Obtain comprehensive visibility and reporting on Web access
throughout the organization
- Conserve bandwidth resources by reducing non-work related
Web browsing and downloads
- Improve user productivity by restricting user access to
inappropriate Web content
- Implement Web access policies based on any combination of
users, groups, time of day, location, network address, user
agent, and other attributes to meet unique business requirements
- Enable authentication through existing security infrastructures
including LDAP (Active Directory, eDirectory), RADIUS and NTLM
- Utilize the most common policy deployments. Refer to Blue
