WEBWASHER SME250

All-in-one protection for Education from both inbound AND outbound web threats

Today's dynamic Web 2.0 environment creates significant security challenges for Schools of all sizes. Protection is needed against Web-based threats and the numerous ways these threats attempt to enter and exit an organization - from websites and encrypted traffic to email or a combination of these methods. Solutions spawned in the Web 1.0 era will not meet the challenge. While Web 2.0 threats require all organizations and their security solutions to proactively protect all key Web protocols, most schools don't have the capacity or budget to deploy the numerous security solutions needed for adequate protection.

Webwasher SME250 is an all-in-one Web security appliance that offers schools and Local Authorities the proactive protection they need against both inbound and outbound threats. Using TrustedSource® web reputation, this SME solution provides immediate protection against unknown threats such as malware hidden in a purportedly "good" webpage, hidden in encrypted SSL traffic, hidden in email, or a blended threat using all three methods. Webwasher's in-depth security also protects schools from outbound threats such as the submission of personal information via email, encrypted Web mail, or other Web protocols.
