Internet Access

Websense Enterprise is a sophisticated Internet access management system that enables corporations, schools and other organizations to monitor, report and manage traffic traveling from their internal network to the Internet. Websense Enterprise provides for better network bandwidth management, increased employee productivity and reduced legal liability associated with undesirable Internet content.

How Websense Works

Websense Enterprise (Websense) is a modular server-based system specially tailored to provide the same high level of performance, flexibility and security in networks of virtually any size and configuration. Rather than relying on a single "one-size-fits-all" solution, Websense is composed of an integrated system of software modules that combine to provide a powerful total Internet access management system. This flexible agent architecture allows Websense to adapt to your unique network configuration and provide maximum speed and security regardless of whether you have 25 or 25,000 users.
