Secure Web Solutions Meet the Requirements for Today's Web Security Demands
Organizations can do more over the Web today than ever before. As use of the Web continues to grow and evolve into Web 2.0, virus outbreaks and otherforms of Web-borne threats evolve as well, leaving current security systems such as IDS, traditional firewall, or anti-virus (A/V) solutions behind. While still important these were not designed to combat cleverly blended threats that can be targeted against individual organizations, hiding inside seemingly good HTTP or HTTPS traffic. Anti-virus companies have doubled or tripled their signatures in less than two years in an attempt to keep pace with the increasing trends of malware. Unknown threats as new forms of malware or targeted attacks leave organizations unprotected and largely exposed. This window of opportunity for malware catches a number of organizations off-guard and unprotected. According to the 2006 CSI/FBI Computer and Crime survey even though 97% of the enterprises surveyed use anti-virus software and 98% even used a firewall, almost two thirds (65%) suffered a virus outbreak or incident. What’s needed is a comprehensive solution that goes beyond desktop or even gateway protections that rely solely on signatures of known threats. Organizations need to be protected from both known and unknown threats, and all the varieties and forms that sophisticated malware takes.
Secure Web (Webwasher) Solutions
Secure Web delivers a comprehensive security solution for all aspects of Web 2.0 traffic. When a user is requesting content from a Web 2.0 application, he is implicitly asking for active content to be delivered to, and executed by, his computer. Furthermore, the same user is required to provide content to the Web 2.0 application, making the security concerns both inbound and outbound in nature.
Secure Web (Webwasher) provides immediate protection for user-initiated Web traffic against threats such as malware hidden in blended content or hidden in encrypted SSL traffic. Secure Web analyzes the intent of all content entering the network – even new web pages before they have content and before they are categorized. It also protects organizations from outbound threats such as potential loss of confidential information that can leak out on all key Web protocols (HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP).
