Despite great benefits of the Internet, organizations of every kind assume substantial risks and costs when they provide Internet access, particularly when those connections are used to access sites containing information or images that are inappropriate, illegal or dangerous. Unrestricted Web access can result in excessive non-productive Web surfing, creating tremendous losses in productivity and potential exposure to security breaches and legal liability.
Traditional Internet filtering products are bulky and costly adding overhead and IT burden while falling short of addressing the issue head-on. These solutions require the deployment of costly filtering and reporting servers along with ongoing IT management to support and maintain. Their human URL review and key word search systems are insufficient when dealing with a dynamic Internet that is constantly growing and changing.
Blue Coat has revolutionized Internet content filtering, removing the headaches and burden that come with Internet management. This next generation solution is offered as a managed service, minimizing initial investment and ongoing management burden by maintaining the technology and data management responsibility at Blue Coat's global data centers. Delivered as an integrated component on a variety of gateway devices, service solutions, and security software applications, Content Control from Blue Coat allows organizations to choose how they prefer to deploy and manage their Internet security.
At the heart of Blue Coat's Web Filtering service is a constantly growing master ratings database containing more than 7 million rated Web sites and domains resulting in effective coverage of more than 1 billion Web pages, which are sorted into 52 unique categories. If a requested site is not found in the ratings database, Blue Coat's unique second line of defense, Dynamic Real-Time Rating™ (DRTR) is activated. Unlike other filtering solutions, this patent pending technology analyzes all requested Web pages in real-time, feeding the ratings database with constant updates to ensure that the Content Control from Blue Coat service has the most relevant ratings database available.
The result, Content Control from Blue Coat provides the highest level of protection and productivity preventing individual users from accessing inappropriate content while reducing organizational liability and risk to Internet security. The innovative rating and caching architecture and remarkable speed of this service delivers an integrated, easy-to-use, manageable solution for networks of any size.
