Web Content Filtering

Why Implement Content Filtering?

• Prevent threats from hitting your network through browsing compromised or malicious websites
• Block inappropriate web content (Pornography, Illegal software sites etc)
• Improve staff productivity, (Example: Shopping sites can only be accessed in certain times, for example at lunch time.)

With a recent rise in harmful web content there has become a need to protect users from potential threats to your organization's network and working environment. These threats come in the form of Malware, designed to infiltrate or damage computers, reduce productivity and put your organization at risk for regulatory noncompliance.

We can provide content filtering through Sonicwall systems which means that any harmful web content will be filtered out and blocked before any user can get to it, eliminating the risk of bringing unwanted malware onto your network and increasing your organizations productivity, by stopping these threats before they arise.

Features Include:

• Granular Content Filtering : We can block all predefined websites and unwanted categories and apply them at a granular level
• Dynamically Updated Rating Architecture : Every time a website is accessed your sonicwall will cross-reference the request with a highly accurate database which includes millions of web addresses and domains, if the requested website has a bad rating the requested content will be blocked.
• Regulatory Reporting : Create up to date reports on how your network is performing, and what content is being filtered, you can easily create graphical reports and historical data in real-time or for reference purposes.
• Web Based Management : Enables flexible policy configuration and complete control over Internet usage. We can enforce multiple custom policies for individual users, groups or specific category types.
• High-performance Web caching and rating architecture : We can easily and automatically block sites by category. URL ratings are cached locally on the SonicWALL appliance, so that response time for subsequent access of frequently visited sites is only a fraction of a second.
• IP-based HTTPS content filtering : We can control user access to all Web sites. Filterering is based on the categorical rating of inappropriate Web site types, such as Gambling, Online Banking, Online Brokerage and Trading, Shopping and Hacking/Proxy Avoidance.
• Scalable, cost-effective solution : Ccontent filtering from the SonicWALL network security appliance, eliminating the need for additional hardware or deployment expenditures from a separate dedicated filtering server.
