|
Web 2.0 is profoundly changing the way we work and
interact. More than 90 of the top 100 Web sites are
categorized as social networking or search sites, supporting
dynamic or user-generated content. Many organizations
are embracing the Web as a business platform, but Web
2.0 technologies, such as blogs, wikis, social networking
sites, and RSS feeds render traditional security technologies
such as antivirus, Web reputation, and basic URL filtering
ineffective.
Web 2.0 can yield enormous benefits for organizations,
including improving customer intimacy and satisfaction,
and building a competitive advantage. Web 2.0, however,
also bears new risks—to security, to productivity, and
to legal liability. Nevertheless, organizations can
significantly benefit from Web 2.0 technologies and
whether they like it or not, their employees are using
these new tools and Web-based applications under the
radar of IT and network security teams.
The Websense V10000 Web security gateway appliance
platform is the industry’s most accurate and effective
solution for Web 2.0 content control and threat protection,
enabling organizations to accelerate business without
having to worry about security, productivity, and liability
threats such as malicious and inappropriate content
and data loss. Utilizing a hardened operating system
optimized for analyzing Web traffic and content, the
Websense V10000 meets the performance requirements of
high-throughput enterprise networks. The Websense V10000
provides lower cost of ownership by minimizing the amount
of hardware required to deploy and manage a secure Web
gateway, and delivering unparalleled price performance.
The Websense V10000 helps organizations reduce capital
and operating costs, including space, power, management,
and maintenance.
The Websense V10000 appliance platform
offers:
- Visibility and control over dynamic
Web content and outbound data loss,

Features:
Protection against Dynamic Web 2.0 Threats
Today’s Web is rich with dynamic content. Real-time
content scanning is the only way to effectively control
dynamic Web threats that are designed to circumvent
traditional security methods. The Websense V10000 Web
Security Gateway appliance uses more than 1800 proprietary
analytic engines developed by the Websense Security
Labs to analyze Web content as it is requested by an
end-user. This advanced control augments the use of
multiple security techniques included with the gateway,
including antivirus, Websense Web antivirus, Web reputation
analysis, behavioral analysis, and Web filtering using
the Websense market-leading URL database. This advanced
protection from Websense provides the most coverage
and the greatest accuracy, enabling customers to securely
leverage the benefits of Web 2.0.
Control over Dynamic and User-generated Content
Websense has embedded advanced analytics and real-time
content inspection and classification technologies from
the Websense ThreatSeeker™ Network into the Websense
V10000. These embedded technologies offer protection
from previouslyuncategorized or unknown Web content
“on the fly.” The Websense V10000 is the only solution
that categorizes specific content on Web pages such
as mashups, rather than just the Web pages themselves,
allowing IT managers to grant users to access Web 2.0
sites while their organizations are protected from sections
of sites that are inappropriate or contain unwanted
content. Websense analyzes content posted to Web 2.0,
social networking and blogger networks as it’s posted,
using the industry’s first and only Web 2.0 early threat
outbreak detection and protection system. This provides
Websense customers with protection from risks before
they propagate.
Advanced Application Controls
The growth of network applications such as IM and
P2P provides hackers with a means to disrupt business
and steal confidential data. The Websense V10000 provides
control of over 130 network protocols for thousands
of applications, mitigating security risks, and preventing
data loss from unauthorized applications.
Integrated Web Proxy and Cache
The Websense V10000 is built with an enterprise-class
Web proxy and cache platform. This platform provides
enhanced management and control, enabling real-time
content analysis for Web traffic. The integrated proxy
and cache can be utilized by customers to consolidate
existing Web proxy deployments, increasing response
time and Web performance while saving time and resources
over purchasing and maintaining separate systems.
Intuitive Management and Reporting Interface
The Websense V10000 appliance is a purpose-built
secure Web gateway appliance. Its intuitive, easy-to-use
dashboard empowers customers to quickly create actionable
reports, and it includes over 55 built-in reports on
user activity and risk reduction. The gateway requires
less time and effort to manage than competitive solutions,
saving time and money, while providing greater visibility
and control, as well as more accurate and granular policy
controls.
Leading Price-to-Performance Ratio
The Websense V10000 provides enterprise-class performance
at a fraction of the cost of competing appliances, and
delivers the industry’s only real-time content and security
inspection technologies. This helps organizations reduce
capital expenses while providing best-in-class performance
and security.
Enhanced Business Continuity
With built-in redundancy and high availability, the
Websense V10000 ensures security is maintained, even
in the unlikely event of a failure. The appliance leverages
integrated virtualization technology to manage multiple
services independently. This allows administrators to
stop, start, and restart software components independently,
offering increased flexibility and solution resiliency.
Built-in Extensibility for Future-Proofed Security
The unique architecture of the Websense V10000 includes
advanced virtualization technology to deliver built-in
extensibility and support for additional Websense security
solutions. The platform helps customers protect their
investment by enabling transparent deployment of future
Websense solutions, without the need to upgrade hardware.
