EDUCATION SOLUTIONS
Websense Enterprise is used by thousands of schools and universities worldwide. Websense allows educational institutions to transparently monitor, report on, and manage internet usage.
THOROUGH FILTERING WITHOUT COMPROMISING RESEARCH CAPABILITIES
Websense enables schools to filter out inappropriate content while allowing relevant information to reach students. This flexible and highly accurate filtering is possible because of the Websense Master Database. The Websense Master Database contains more than 18 million websites categorised into over 90 categories.
THE WEBSENSE SOLUTION
Websense Enterprise permits school IT administrators to customise internet access policies by user, group, workstation, or network. Thus, it is easy to enable faculty to access a different range of sites than students.
COMPLY WITH FEDERAL LAW AND AVOID LEGAL LIABILITY
Laws like the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) can penalise schools that don’t use internet filtering software by withholding federal internet and computer funding. Websense meets CIPA criteria.
Another legal concern for educators is lawsuits brought by concerned parents and organizations. Installing Websense Enterprise on your network limits legal liability by blocking inappropriate and objectionable material.

CONSERVE EXPENSIVE NETWORK BANDWIDTH
MP3s, streaming video, and online chats require a great deal of bandwidth and can seriously affect the network’s speed and performance. Websense allows schools to block sites with bandwidth-intensive content, thus improving overall network performance.
