Every
mouse click in a web browser affects your business. To
make the web good for business, visibility, control and
performance are requirements to manage web communications
with today’s expanding
Internet content, services and applications. Proxy appliances
provide vital technologies to control web applications
down to individual users, plus accelerate and prioritize
web content delivery to distributed offices and users.
In forward proxy deployments, employee actions on the
Internet are visible with proxy logging and reporting,
and policy controls are available to advise, coach and
enforce Internet acceptable use when changes in behavior
are desired. Transparent to these users, content can
be scanned for viruses, spyware can be removed, pop-ups
that mask phishing attacks or display annoying ads can
be removed, plus content can be categorized with on-proxy
URL filtering to determine its acceptance for viewing.
Integrated caching with advanced web object retrieval
and refresh algorithms increase web communication performance
as content is often served from cache memory, all the
while providing visibility and control - a unique solution
that provides an improved user web experience with policy
controls.
In reverse proxy deployments, origin servers are isolated
from direct Internet access, a large percentage of web
application content is cached for improved delivery to
users, plus SSL operations can be off-loaded from origin
servers and uploaded content can be scanned for viral
threats. Web server farms benefit greatly from proxy
appliances in reverse proxy mode to scale operations
for an ever-growing base of Internet users.
Proxy appliances in hierarchies from central offices
to remote branch offices leverage caching, compression
and bandwidth management technologies to improve web
application delivery, plus keep out the cesspool of Internet
threats and content from users on all locations with
policy controls. Remote users and partners also benefit
from compression of HTTP objects delivered to their browsers
and bandwidth management prioritization to enterprise
web infrastructures.
