Distributed enterprise networks may have many remote locations, ranging from dozens to thousands of small sites. The remote locations have Internet access, but may have no dedicated IT staff.
The challenge is to apply consistent, cost-effective web security across the entire organization.
*
Remote sites must have Internet access.
*
Internet access is provided by independent Internet service providers, often using low to medium-bandwidth connections.
*
Web requests are sent directly to the Internet and are not first routed through a central corporate network.
*
Internet access must be managed to permit only appropriate content.
*
Cost or maintenance considerations prohibit deploying a dedicated web protection server at each site.
Forcepoint Web Security and Forcepoint URL Filtering can be deployed as on-premises solutions whose policy enforcement components can be located regionally and communicate over the Internet to apply uniform policies across all offices.
The Forcepoint Web Security Hybrid Module for Forcepoint Web Security allows a combination of on-premises and in-the-cloud policy enforcement.
