Unmanaged Internet access presents many challenges to organisations that rely on the Web for day-to-day business. Even seemingly-harmless Internet use may expose organisations to productivity loss and serious security threats. While large organisations may have access to expensive, sophisticated security solutions, mid-sized and smaller organisations may not have the budgets or technical staffing required to protect against these threats.
Websense Express delivers the industry’s most respected content filtering and Internet security solution optimised for mid-sized and smaller organisations. It is a simple and affordable solution to protect against the dangers of unmanaged Internet access.

Websense ThreatSeeker technology delivers preemptive protection from Web-based security threats-threats typically missed or too costly to prevent using traditional security technologies. Unlike these approaches, Websense seeks out threats on the Internet before customers are compromised and protects customers before patches and signatures are created.
Websense ThreatSeeker uses more than 100 proprietary processes and systems to decipher emerging and complex threats and uses a combination of mathematical algorithms, behavior profiling, code analysis, as well as an extensive network of data mining machines. The foundation of all Websense security software products, ThreatSeeker provides ongoing threat intelligence and delivers automatic protection to customers.
