The M86 Web Filtering and Reporting (M86 WFR) suite delivers high-performance, enterprise-quality Web filtering via a suite of optimized, task-specific appliances. Residing outside the flow of network traffic, the M86 WFR observes and approves/denies outbound Web requests. This pass-by/SPAN port methodology results in unmatched network compatibility, performance and fail-safe confidence.
This Web filtering appliance is anchored by a URL database with more than 100 categories identifying millions of websites. And the solution has been ranked among the most accurate Web security solutions f
or more than 10 years.
Engineered and dedicated to meet true real-time expectations, the solution integrates with the M86 Security Reporter to process granular data queries — down to the user and specific Web page — at fast speeds quick data archive retrieval.
The M86 WFR is designed with today’s business, education and government archival requirements in mind. If additional data retention is required, the solution provides clients with custom NAS configurations.
Finally, the M86 WFR provides Web usage monitoring that bridges the gap between detection and action. By setting customized thresholds, administrators can “watch” outbound Web traffic 24/7, automatically receiving alerts to AUP violations, bandwidth threats and other suspect Web activity. It can even shut down user access if needed—in real time.
The M86 WFR Suite can be implemented through a single, integrated M86 Web Filter and Reporter appliance or a dedicated M86 Web Filter appliance with a dedicated M86 Security Reporter appliance.
