Secure Web Gateway, Mobile Device Filtering and Significant Upgrade to Web Filter

London, 24th April 2012, Infosecurity 2012, Stand C43: Bloxx, the innovator in Web and email security, today announced new products and a significant upgrade to its Web Filter. These new products and enhanced Web Filter will allow customers to deal with some of the emerging challenges around the continued growth of Web traffic, Web security, mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones and employee-owned devices (BYODs).

“These new products build on our proven expertise in real-time content analysis and categorization and will provide additional functionality and value to our customers,” said Eamonn Doyle, CEO at Bloxx. “For example, the Bloxx iPad Browser will allow customers to minimize the risk of inappropriate or productivity-draining Web content being viewed on company-owned iPads that are taken off-network.”

The new and enhanced products being announced at Infosecurity include:

- The Bloxx Secure Web Gateway which combines the company’s dynamic real-time content analysis and classification engine, Tru-View Technology, with Sophos’ Anti-Malware and the Bloxx SSL proxy. This will provide customers with unsurpassed levels of content filtering and protection against Web-based security threats for HTTP and HTTPS Web traffic. See the full press release for details.

- A new version of the Bloxx Web Filter based on a new core Web filtering platform that has been engineered and optimized to provide high performance and scalability to meet the rapidly growing complexity of filtering Web content. In addition to delivering an extensive list of new features and a three fold performance increase, the Web reporting engine has also undergone significant redevelopment to deliver a five times performance improvement in report generation. See the full press release for further information.

- The Bloxx iPad Browser which lets organizations quickly and easily extend the capability of their Bloxx Web Filter or Secure Web Gateway to enforce Web access policies for iPads used off-network. The Bloxx iPad Browser will filter Web traffic over a Wi-Fi connection when the device is connected to an organization’s network and if the iPad is used off-network, for example at home or connected to a public Wi-Fi network. In addition, if the iPad has 3G connectivity, then access policies will still be enforced with the Browser installed. See the full press release for further information.
