Powerful Platform for Comprehensive Management of Blue Coat
Appliances
Blue Coat Director enables policy, configuration, and device
management for Blue Coat appliances. Built as a management appliance,
Director reduces management cost and complexity by providing
centralized management of distributed and remote Blue Coat appliances.
Configuration information and security policies are created and
managed from a single easy to use interface available from any
workstation with a Web browser.
With Director, organizations can enforce
effective, consistent policies across their entire enterprise
network – centrally
managing hundreds of devices at remote sites worldwide. Installing

appliances.
