With the growth of Web 2.0 and the increasing use of Web-based applications, Web-based threats have become a significant security concern for businesses. Some of these threats come in the form of outside attacks from virus or malware writers who embed their wares in email or on Web sites. Other threats are unwittingly brought in by members of the organization who bypass older filter technology either through anonymous proxies or filter avoidance software.
Organizations need a way to manage these threats, but many of the solutions in place today cannot protect against anything but the simplest filter avoidance techniques. This leaves the organization vulnerable to users who bypass the filter and connect up blocked sites. On these sites, user can become infected with malware and viruses. If they are using anonymous proxy software or sites, they are further putting all of their network traffic at risk including potentially confidential information.
How we do it better
Cymphonix® eliminates a user’s ability to use anonymous proxies and other forms of filter bypass by using multiple levels of defense. Network Composer® also uses deep packet inspection, antispyware, and antivirus routines to protect against malware attacks that may be masked deep in the payloads of otherwise innocent-looking traffic.
