eSafe Application and Web 2.0 Control

eSafe’s application and Web 2.0 control modules provide granular control of web-enabled applications, regulate the usage of the Internet, and prevent unauthorized, unwanted or dangerous operations that can lead to infection or information leakage.

eSafe’s Web 2.0 Control module prevents Web 2.0-based applications from bypassing existing security measures and creating holes through which spyware, Trojan horses, viruses, and other malware can attack a network.

The AppliFilter provides complete real-time protection against malicious, dangerous, and unwanted applications, using more than 500 application protocols in more than 20 application categories. By monitoring, controlling, and blocking applications at the gateway, the network will be guarded in real-time, enabling only the use of permitted applications, while remaining completely transparent to users.

AppliFilter provides granular control of different protocols, including those that tunnel and disguise themselves as browsers. Providing this depth of command over cloud-based and Web 2.0 applications, eSafe can allow or block specific actions on popular Web 2.0 applications, such as Gmail, Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter.
