Prevent Attacks Without Slowing Down
For businesses, the web is the most common source of user productivity. But it’s also incredibly exposed to threats like phishing, malware infection, and credential theft. Stand-alone proxies or web filtering tools can combat these threats, but they leave you with critical security gaps putting you at risk, and requiring complex policies that slow down adoption of new business applications.
