GOVERNMENT / PUBLIC SECTOR SOLUTIONS
Government and public sector agencies must be able to provide secure access to employees, citizens, and suppliers around the world. Because they ultimately answer to taxpayers, government and public sector organisations must select effective, yet economical, software solutions.
Internet misuse can pose a variety of problems for agency managers and IT administrators, and, increasingly, it can even be dangerous. It is important for agencies to protect themselves from the legal liabilities, the security breaches, and the productivity loss that can result from unmanaged internet use.
INTERNET USE STATISTICS
- One-third of time spent online at work is non-work-related (Websense Web@Work survey)
- 44% of employees run streaming media applications during the workday
THE WEBSENSE SOLUTION
Government and public sector agencies choose Websense because of its ability to integrate with a variety of enterprise-level internet appliances, as well as for its robust Master Database, which includes more than 18 million websites, in more than 50 languages, classified into more than 90 categories. In fact, Websense software is used in more than 500 government organisations.
Websense software provides a flexible tool with which to manage internet use according to time of day, department, and users and groups. The software automates the organisation's written internet access policy, taking the burden off managers and IT administrators.
Because of the unmatched breadth of the Websense Master Database, and the fact that customers are sent automatic updates of new websites daily, government agencies never have to worry about employees surfing for illicit material or wasting valuable network resources.
