    Its modules predominantly function via the cloud, rendering it exceptionally convenient for users. Its design based on the cloud liberates us from the burden of upkeeping the infrastructure.

    This appliance is well suited for organizations that have a need to monitor, moderate, or log social networking site use or the use of any website. It is a very solid tool for any information security department to have at their disposal.

    • Discovery: It allows for easy discoveries by the compliance and cyber security departments.
    • Ethical walls: This keeps certain departments from talking to each other.
    • Very granular control. This is a big product meaning you can get very detailed with it.
    • Once it's configured and running, we hardly ever have any issues.

    This was the only appliance of its kind that I have used. Other devices have different capabilities for web filtering such as the checkpoint firewalls, but none of them offered the overall solution that was deployed with this product at that time.
