NetDefend Web Content Filtering (WCF) service enforces access protection and
management policy in terms of Internet resource allocation for your organization.
It helps MIS monitor, manage, and control employee usage of and access to the
Internet, and puts management back in control, enabling a more business-orientated
and cost effective use of sometimes scarce Internet resources.
organizations gain significant cost savings through:
1) A reduction in wasted staff time by reducing inappropriate web surfing.
2) Reduced Internet access costs and bandwidth savings by limiting and controlling
non-business related uses, thus improving network response.
3) Reducing legal exposure to workplace conflicts and liabilities (e.g. sexual
harassment cases or child pornography and the adverse publicity that such
incidents can generate).
4) Reduced costs in recovering from attacks as much less inappropriate content will
even be allowed to enter the network.
● global Index Servers
» Global index servers maintain
databases of millions of URLs and
collect real-time website information
about latest sites in order to keep data
as current as possible.
» Multiple servers worldwide enhance
performance and maximize service
availability wherever a NetDefend
firewall is installed.
● Performance optimized
» Multiple index servers to enhance
performance capacity and maximize
service availability.
» Categories of recently visited websites
are cached locally in each UTM
firewall to maximize performance for
subsequent requests.
● Tight Integration with other
D-link Security gateway
Subsystems
» Allows users to define highly-granular
policies for allowing or disallowing where
and when access to certain types of
websites are permitted.
» Different policies can be applied to any
combination of users, interfaces, and IP
networks.
● Static white and Black lists
» Define websites that will be explicitly
allowed or blocked, independent of their
classification.
» 32 default classification groups in
NetDefend UTM firewalls to allow
network administrators to control
Internet usage.
● Active Content Handling
» Can strip potential malicious objects,
such as Java applets, JavaScripts/
VBScripts, ActiveX objects and cookies,
all of which are popular methods for
hacker attacks.
● Cost-Effective web Content
filtering
» Priced per firewall instead of per user,
so enterprise-level organizations do
not need to contemplate large TCO for
licensing in order to manage the surfing
privileges of all employees.
» One subscription can provide web
surfing control for an entire organization.
