Overall Satisfaction with Sophos Web Content Filtering
For our organization, Sophos security solutions for web content control, and endpoint security is an effective solution pairing. The Sophos integrated security solution allowed us to resolve users from venturing into unsafe web space, with use of DNS blocking (resolve only names via categories etc.) These features allow less false positives and better web content control for users to browse Internet searching with less fear of intrusion of unsafe web sites (non compliant).
- Categorize content
- Rules for exceptions
- Custom error screens for end user
- Adding of new categories to filter engines
- Updates for known bad searches
- Domain whitelist ordering
- Preset categories for different organizations
- Exceptions for groups
- User activity monitoring
- Reporting of suspicious activity and risky user/sites
- Less web traffic efforts for overall security of users (along with Sophos Central)
- Can add to overall protection cost for firewall initial purchase option
Sophos has been a much easier product to configure and eventually manage, with preset rules and policies to start off right out of the box, saving administrators time from adding every category and or site. However you can add/import all know good company sites (internal url's) as well as local sites for a safer settings. (know sites)
