Dynamic Content Analysis
Guardian’s Dynamic Content Analysis™ technology examines not just the content but the context and construction of every web page requested. Sites are identified and classified in a fraction of a second, and can be flexibly blocked or allowed based on the type of content, the user - or even the time of day. Categories incorporate content from the IWF database* and are updated daily.
Web Security & Anti-Malware
With VIPRE anti-malware and web security, Guardian detects and blocks web-borne malware and viruses, as well as other malicious hidden content such as browser exploits and embedded program code.
‘Who, What, When & Where’ Policy Tools
Guardian’s powerful policy tools enable you to create specific environments that fit all your users' needs. These tools reduce the day-to-day management tasks associated with modifying access levels to fit with ever-changing user requirements.
SSL Filtering
SSL interception ensures that Internet traffic using secure connections (SSL/HTTPS) is also analysed and scanned for threats and inappropriate content. Flexible policy rules enable known financial institutions to be whitelisted.
Proxy Detection
Guardian accurately detects and prevents the use of the anonymous proxy tools that allow users to bypass web filters and secretly browse banned online content. All web pages requested are scrutinised for the tell-tale signatures of proxy servers and networks (including SSL/encrypted proxies) and are blocked accordingly.
Flexible, Secure Filtering With Authentication
Filtering can be fine-tuned using Guardian’s intuitive and easy to use interface. Integration with Microsoft Active Directory®, Novell eDirectory™ and other LDAP systems enables policy-based filtering so that different rules can be set for different users and/or rooms at different times of the day. Soft-blocking options and temporary bypass controls also help to maintain a flexible and user-friendly level of filtering.
Advanced Reporting
Understand and interpret web usage with advanced and highly granular reporting tools. User activity is constantly monitored in real-time and reports can be automatically scheduled and issued using 300+ pre-built reporting templates. A User Portal also provides limited access to selected users for viewing reports.
Instant Messaging
Guardian incorporates tools for controlling and monitoring a wide range of Instant Messaging applications. IM conversations, file transfers and attachments can be monitored, logged, censored or blocked altogether.
Web Caching
Guardian’s web proxy cache helps to reduce bandwidth utilisation by storing and retrieving frequently accessed web pages. This is of particular benefit in a classroom environment where many users will be looking at the same material**.
