Enable the safe exchange of information and protect data
As a higher education institution, you face unique information security challenges. Enabling the free flow of information is vital not just in support of the First Amendment but also because information is the lifeblood of our educational system. Websense understands that you must balance securing this freedom while also enforcing acceptable use policies and protecting your data, which is why we offer content security solutions for higher education. Websense® solutions help safeguard confidential data, such as student academic, health, and financial information, and donor and employee records. At the same time, our solutions enable safer use of the Web and the free exchange of information.
