Secure Computing's Web Filtering Solution
Protect your organization from risks associated with employee Internet use with SmartFilter® Web filtering. SmartFilter products help limit exposure to security risks such as viruses and malware and reduce legal liability while increasing productivity and preserving your bandwidth for business related activities.
The Web You Want. The Control You Need
Today’s dynamic Web 2.0 environment creates significant security challenges for organizations. In addition to malicious code and Web-borne viruses entering networks by users simply going to an infected Web site—often unintentionally, collaborative sites such as blogs and wikis and other dynamtic sites can now pose a security threat as well.
SmartFilter products enable organizations to understand and monitor their Internet use, while taking effective steps to provide appropriate control over outbound Web access and protection against all forms of today’s Web-based threats. The SmartFilter filtering line includes SmartFilter for corporations and SmartFilter, Bess® edition for education.

Powered by TrustedSource
SmartFilter now incorporates global intelligence from the company’s industry-leading reputation system, TrustedSource. Like a credit agency provides credit scores to enable reliable commerce, TrustedSource provides reputation scores for URLs, domains and IPs that are based on security risk. Using this real-time scoring, SmartFilter allows organizations to detect and prevent web security threats such as spyware, phishing or other malware.
Reputation-Based Filtering + Category-Based Filtering = Best Protection Available
SmartFilter delivers the best protection available with the powerful combination of reputation-based filtering powered by TrustedSource and the award-winning SmartFilter Internet Database.
TrustedSource reputation network proactively finds, reports, and enables SmartFilter to
       block traffic to and from questionable sources. Relying on its global reputation network and
       knowledge of Internet entities, the TrustedSource network identifies potentially malicious
       behavior or intentions to distribute malicious code.
SmartFilter Internet Database provides a proven database of over 20 million blockable Web sites
       in 91 categories. Built by our team of multi-lingual Web Analysts using state-of-art technology,the
       coverage, quality, and accuracy of SmartFilter is unmatched. Your purchase of SmartFilter
       includes comprehensive coverage of all our categories, with no premium charges or additional
       costs.
Understand Your Organization's Web Usage with Our Powerful Reporting Solution
Reporting is a key element of any Web filtering solution, and SmartFilter products include powerful reporting capabilities. With SmartReporter™, you can quickly understand how your organization is using the Web, isolate problems, document inappropriate Web activity, and tailor your filtering settings to effectively enforce your Web usage policies.
SmartReporter provides an easy-to-use Web-based interface that delivers immediate access to the information you need. Drill-down capabilities provide real-time feedback and instant snap-shots on your organization’s Web usage and trends by category, location, or individual. Management, HR, or other staff can run full color charts without any IT involvement.
When users log in to SmartReporter, they are presented with a top-level overview of recent Web activity—and can readily access more detail—even without running a report. Or, when reports are desired, they can be scheduled and distributed via email to specific staff.
Simple to Install–Easy to Manage
no additional hardware or network configuration changes are required. For off-box installations, you can select the platform that best fits with your existing infrastructure. With all SmartFilter products, you save time and money, increasing your value of ownership.
The intuitive interface lets you pick and choose the categories you wish to implement, and customize your policies according to users and groups you specify. For example, you can deny access to gambling and pornography sites for your entire organization, while allowing access to travel or sports sites to certain departments or users during lunch hours. With Authorized Override, you can designate individual users who are authorized via password to override the filter for a specified time. You can also easily create user-defined categories that allow you to filter sites not included in the SmartFilter Internet Database, or exempt any site that you would like specific groups or individuals to access.
SmartFilter products give you the complete flexibility you want and total control you need to manage your individual Web access policy.
Deploy a Filtering Solution That Fits Directly into Your Network Architecture
SmartFilter products fit seamlessly into almost any network environment. With over 30 supported platforms, SmartFilter offers the widest range of deployment options to match your exact needs.
Many SmartFilter configurations are embedded into a host platform and run On-Box with the most popular proxy servers, caching appliances, and firewalls, providing unrivaled speed, reliability, and scalability. In fact, SmartFilter On-Box is the leading OEM choice with partners, listed on the last page of this overview.
Additionally, SmartFilter is available as an On-Box component of Secure Computing’s Webwasher Web Gateway Security Appliance and Sidewinder Network Gateway Security Appliance. With Webwasher, you’ll find a complete portfolio of Web Gateway Security appliances which protect enterprises from malware, data leakage, and Internet misuse, and ensure policy enforcement, regulatory compliance, and a productive application environment. And with Sidewinder, you’ll find Unified Threat Management (UTM) firewalls that defend networks and Internet-facing applications from all types of malicious threats.
