SurfControl Web Filter v5.5

Web-based e-mail, file downloads, Instant Messaging (IM), Peer to Peer (P2P), and unauthorized Web 
surfing can expose your enterprise network to serious, debilitating attacks and undesirable code, including 
spyware, adware, malware, and pornography. SurfControl Web Filter offers a proactive security solution 
that protects your enterprise against known, emerging, and customer-specific threats before they reach 
your network. 

Your IT staff will appreciate how easy it is to deploy and manage SurfControl's enterprise-wide Web 
protection. With fewer administrative headaches, they can focus on other important assignments and 
projects.

SurfControl Web Filter allows you to actively monitor network use and abuse anywhere in your 
organization. You can even extend real-time protection to mobile users who connect to the corporate 
network with SurfControl Mobile Filter. The same corporate security rules apply, so mobile devices are 
shielded from unwanted intrusions, minimizing unexpected shutdowns that lead to lapses in productivity.

SurfControl Web Filter bolsters your defenses by providing:

•

Bullet proof infrastructure security – Automatic, real-time security updates through our 
comprehensive threat database, which is constantly kept current with knowledge gathered by our 
global threat experts. 

•

Legal liability protection – Prevents circulation of inappropriate content that violates copyright laws 
or infringes rights. 

•

Regulatory compliance – Helps you meet HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, and other industry or government 
security requirements. 

•

Enhanced employee productivity – Limits Web surfing and downtime due to attacks and improves 
IT productivity because it's easy to implement and manage.
