Websense - how it works

Find out why thousands of IT managers rely on Websense to make their lives easier.

 

Websense is based on pass-through filtering technology, the most accurate, reliable and scalable method of Internet filtering. Pass-through filtering requires all requests for Web pages to pass through an Internet control point such as a firewall, proxy server or caching device.

Websense is integrated with these control points and checks each request to immediately determine whether it should be allowed or denied. All responses are logged for reporting purposes.

Websense filters Internet content by working in conjunction with the Websense Master Database of more than 5 million web sites, organized into 80+ categories, including MP3, gambling, shopping and adult content.

You can choose to block, permit, limit by time-based quota or postpone access to individual categories by user, group, workstation or network.

New sites are added to the database daily, and Websense Enterprise automatically downloads updates to the database every night to ensure you’re keeping up with the rapid evolution of the Internet.

 

You can run Websense on Microsoft Windows NT, Windows 2000, Sun Solaris or Red Hat Linux operating systems.
