NetDefend Web Content Filtering Service
Web surfing control is becoming a critical concern for
businesses of all sizes; D-Link's Web Content Filtering (WCF) service enforces access
protection and management policy in terms of Internet resource allocation for your
organization.
NetDefend Web Content Filtering helps MIS monitor, manage, and control employee usage of
and access to the Internet. It puts management back in control, enabling a more
business-orientated and cost effective use of sometimes scarce Internet resources.
1)
A reduction in wasted staff time
by reducing inappropriate web surfing.
2)
Reduced Internet access costs and
bandwidth savings by limiting and controlling non-business related uses, thus improving
network response.
3)
Reducing legal exposure to workplace
conflicts and liabilities (e.g. sexual harassment cases or child pornography and the
adverse publicity that such incidents can generate).
4)
Reduced costs in recovering from attacks
as much less inappropriate content will even be allowed to enter the network.
Global Index Servers Global index servers maintain databases of millions of URLs and collect real-time
website information about the latest sites in order to keep the data as current as
possible. Multiple servers worldwide enhance performance and maximize service availability
wherever a NetDefend firewall is installed.
Performance Optimized D-Link implements multiple index servers to enhance performance capacity and
maximize service availability. Categories of recently visited websites are cached locally
in each UTM firewall to maximize performance for subsequent requests.
Tight Integration with other D-Link
Security Gateway Subsystems D-Link allows you to define highly-granular policies for allowing or disallowing
where and when access to certain types of websites is permitted, and different policies
can be applied to any combination of users, interfaces, and IP networks.
Static White and Black Lists Define websites that will be explicitly allowed or blocked, independent of their
classification. There are 32 default classification groups in NetDefend UTM firewalls to
allow network administrators to control Internet usage.
Active Content Handling The WCF capabilities of D-Link UTM firewalls can strip potential malicious
objects, such as Java applets, JavaScripts / VBScripts, ActiveX objects and cookies, all
of which are popular methods for hacker attacks.
Cost-Effective Web Content Filtering D-Link's WCF service is priced per firewall instead of per user, so an
enterprise-level organization does not need to contemplate a large TCO for licensing in
order to manage the surfing privileges of all employees. One subscription can provide web
surfing control for an entire organization.
Web surfing control is becoming a critical concern for
businesses of all sizes; D-Link's Web Content Filtering (WCF) service enforces access
protection and management policy in terms of Internet resource allocation for your
organization.
