Internet Policy Enforcement

URL and Web Content Filtering

Web content filtering enables companies to enforce Internet use policies, mitigate data loss, protect users from inappropriate content and improve productivity. Webroot filters Web content based on site URL, Web application, attachment type, MIME type, file type and file size. Millions of URLs are categorised into 12 main categories and 96 subcategories. This database is continuously updated to ensure accurate and advanced control. Content filtering also includes the ability to block advertisements.

Internet Access Control

Internet access policies can be set according to group or individual user level and applied by time and location.

Administrators can also set Web site access to be “Allowed,” “Blocked” or “Coached” in order to help inform users and manage Internet use.

For even greater filtering control, the service provides the ability to create customised URL “Allow” and “Deny” lists.

Anonymising proxy detection enforces company Internet use policies even when users attempt to access blocked pages through common or custom anonymising proxy sites.

Quota Policy Support

Administrators can easily support and enforce Internet use policies by placing limits on bandwidth consumption, time spent online and number of sites accessed. To help monitor and track Internet use, logs and reports are available to track factors such as daily bandwidth consumed by user and time spent surfing.

Roaming User Protection

The Web Security Service provides seamless enforcement of company Internet use policies regardless of where an employee is working — whether it’s at home, the airport, a hotel or an Internet café.

Mobile laptop users can be easily configured to receive automatic and uninterrupted protection even while they are outside their organisation’s network. Because the service sits in the cloud, these laptop users can authenticate directly with the service rather than establishing a VPN connection to the corporate network. This roaming user protection helps to improve employee productivity, enhance network security and reduce cost.
