Websense Web Security Gateway
Web Security Gateway solutions inspect inbound and outbound content as it traverses organisational boundaries to protect businesses from dynamic Web malware, prevent sensitive outbound data loss, and enhance employee productivity.
Websense TruHybrid™ deployment supports on-premise appliance as well as Security-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms, while managing the entire environment from a single policy and reporting infrastructure. Unlike alternative approaches, Websense customers have the flexibility to choose the platform or mix of platforms that best meets their specific operational requirements without incurring the cost of managing multiple systems.
Websense Web Security Gateway solutions offer:
- Outbound Data Loss Prevention and Compliance Controls - Built-in enterprise-class data loss prevention establishes the controls needed to enable outbound communications to destinations like Web mail and social networks, while meeting compliance mandates to control disclosure of sensitive data.
- malware Protection - The Websense TRITON™ Advanced Classification Engine (ACE) protects against legacy file-based attacks as well as dynamic, scripted attacks that circumvent traditional antivirus solutions.
- Web 2.0 Employee Productivity - The TRITON Advanced Classification Engine removes inappropriate content from complex, dynamic, and password-protected Web 2.0 sites that cannot be accurately classified by traditional URL filtering solutions.
- Lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) - The Websense TRITON Console and TruHybrid deployment reduce the number of appliances, management systems, and vendors that must be supported across the enterprise.
- Consistent, Enterprise-Wide Security Coverage - TruHybrid deployment unifies policy across on-premise and SaaS deployments. As users move between locations or work at home, their unique policy is consistently enforced.
TruHybrid Deployment
TruHybrid deployment provides the flexibility to select a mix of on-premise and SaaS deployment platforms, while managing the entire environment with a unique unified management system. You can extend security to branch offices or mobile users by leveraging the SaaS platform. At the same time, you can deploy high-performance appliances at corporate, large branch, or data center locations. Regardless of the mix of SaaS or appliance options chosen, you define a single enterprise-wide policy in one place. This unified approach not only cuts the cost of managing hybrid on-premise/SaaS deployments but also ensures consistent security coverage across all environments.
Deployment Platform Availability
On-premise deployments can be implemented with Websense V-Series™ appliances or with software running on general purpose servers. SaaS deployments are supported with the Websense Hosted Web Security Gateway solution.
- V-Series Appliances V-Series appliances deliver enterprise-class performance, reliability, and simple deployment for on-premise deployments. Proven in Fortune 100 environments, V-Series appliances integrate component-level redundancy while supporting an array of enterprise deployment features, including load balancing and high availability. V-Series appliances are also designed to support future Websense solutions without upgrading hardware - extending the life and value of the platform.
- Hosted Web Security Gateway Websense Hosted Web Security Gateway solutions shift security inspection processes to 10 globally available and redundant data centers located "in the cloud." This SaaS delivery model not only accelerates deployment, but it can significantly reduce operational costs by eliminating the need to support on-premise hardware at each corporate location. Websense data centers are ISO 27001 certified to meet the strict security and availability standards that would be extremely costly for individual organisations to match on premise, especially at remote office locations. When deployed as a standalone SaaS-only solution, Websense Hosted Web Security Gateway offers the optional added benefit of SaaS email security integration.
