WebBlazer

WebBlazer is the critical component of an effective defense-in-depth strategy. It protects against infected websites, crimeware, and malicious web traffic to compliance risks from instant messaging (IM) and peer-to-peer (P2P) applications. This joint solution from Websense and Crossbeam combines comprehensive security and compliance URL filtering and robust outbound web traffic security on high performance security hardware.

Industry-Leading Web Security and Web Filtering

Leveraging industry-leading Web Security and Web Filtering from Websense, the Web Threat Management Solution provides comprehensive protection for networks from spyware, keyloggers, bots, rootkits, phishing, pharming, and other web-based malware. Real-time security updates ensure instant and automatic protection, even when an updated antivirus signature is not yet available.

WebBlazer utilizes Websense WebCatcher(TM) technology to anonymously aggregate new and unrecognized sites, which are then categorized and added to the Master Database as appropriate. This system for classifying uncategorized sites, which uses a combination of artificial intelligence and human review, significantly reduces the risk of over-blocking - a problem typical of on-the-fly rating systems.

Internet Threat Expertise - Websense Security Labs

Websense protects customers from the latest internet threats through the advanced efforts of Websense Security Labs, an internal, dedicated, security research team whose mission it is to discover and research high-risk threats. Websense is able to provide protection within minutes of the discovery of a new threat. Without a Security Labs equivalent, other solutions that claim to block spyware, malicious mobile code, phishing and pharming attacks, and other web-based malware, cannot effectively do so.

More Out-of-the-Box Functionality

WebBlazer provides the ability to manage more than 80 protocols, including those that tunnel over port 80. Websense protocol detection is signature-based, allowing for all protocols and policy settings to be easy-to-use, out-of-the-box. While non-signature-based solutions require administrative intervention when a protocol is added or changed, the Websense protocol database is updated seamlessly and automatically.

WebBlazer allows easy management of protocol policy settings through a visual user interface.  Non-signature-based solutions do not have visibility into new or tunneled protocols, and may require the use of proprietary, non-intuitive, command-line scripting.

WebThreat Management Solution delivers a high performance proxy/cache with best-of-breed Web Security in an affordable package.
