NetSafa® Policy Control - Threat

Products | Policy Control | Threats | Internet:

An average worker spends 3,4 ~ 5,9 hours/week (2 ~15% on the Internet) on non-company related issues (e.g. porn). This results in risk of unwanted contents on company’s computers and unnecessary bandwidth usage. Imagine the consequences if child pornography is found on your corporate servers or if company data was displayed publicly through a hacker backdoor. Moreover most shopping and surfing is done during business hours. Recent study shows that in July 2004, 28 million porn pages are being created, ie. 10 every second. And most malware is placed on porn pages, sites with MP3s etc. Preventing access to these sites will increase security.

Web filtering allows the administrator to set rules, as part of IT-policy, that governs access to internet resources using internet filtering software. The software blocks/advises against specific sites on the Internet. Some people view filtering softwares as censorship, however, there is a need to prevent misuse of corporate internet and bandwidth, and also to protect the individual employee from unintentional misuse.

Imagine this scenario:

You are away on a business trip. Can you leave the office in peace, knowing that no external forces (threats from viruses, worms, Trojan Horses etc.) will be allowed to enter your network?

As a business owner/CEO/school principal, are you aware of the consequences if pornography is found on your server or if company/school data is displayed publicly through a hacker backdoor? Accessing non-company related websites will also result in unnecessary bandwidth usage.
