Trend Micro Offers Web Gateway Security Solution

Enterprises are ready for a Web gateway security product that not only effectively manages employees’ Internet use while in the office, but also exceeds basic URL filtering to address zero-hour attacks through Web reputation.

Trend Micro has launched its Web Gateway Security solution, which integrates the InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance 5.0 product and the new Advanced Reporting and Management module for a solution set that is powered by the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network infrastructure, an in-the-cloud source for threat intelligence.

Combined with on-premise malware scanning, policy administration, and dynamic reporting, Trend Micro Web Gateway Security provides a responsive security solution for the Web gateway. It also includes anti-virus and anti-spyware technologies to clean, delete or quarantine infected content. The integrated Advanced Reporting and Management module gives customers visibility into their entire company’s Web activities, and provides access to real-time information at a very granular level.

With Advanced Reporting and Management, IT managers gain clarity into employees’ Internet activities through dynamic dashboards, real-time monitoring, forensic-level user activity analysis, and drill-down reporting so that threats are exposed faster, allowing IT to respond more quickly.

They get insight into where malware is coming from, who’s spending large amounts of time browsing non-work related sites (and therefore compromising productivity), when they’re doing it, who’s responsible for slowing down the network as it’s occurring, and much more.
