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.
