WSX


WSX™ appliances from Celestix set a new high standard for effective Web security and high ease of use. Designed for small to medium businesses, WSX appliances deploy as platforms for world-leading Websense® Express software. 

Websense Express monitors Internet requests from employees and applies policy-based filters to those requests. Websense express also logs Internet activity, notifies users if they violate a policy, and provides detailed reports to administrators. If a user tries to visit an infected website, Websense Express blocks access to the site preventing damage to the user’s system and breaches to the network’s security.

WSX appliances integrate Websense Express software with Celestix' SlingSHOT™ appliance-software engine and Scorpio-X™ high-performance hardware platform. SlingSHOT gives WSX appliances high-ease-of-use features that minimize staff cost and burden for smaller organizations and branch offices that have limited IT staff on site.

Web Filtering
Web filtering lets organizations provide employees with Internet service while minimizing the risk of legal liability, ensuring adequate network bandwidth, and protecting worker productivity. You can apply different filtering policies to different clients, such as users, groups, domains/organizational units, workstations, or networks. Websense Express filters network applications that use TCP-based protocols. Besides HTTP, WSX appliances also filter protocols, applications, and other data transfer methods including instant messaging, streaming media, file sharing, file transfer, Internet mail, and various other network or database operations.

Your organization will benefit from WSX appliances several ways:
• Gain insight into your organization’s Internet activity with real-time management visibility into Internet use and customized reporting
• Uncover your company’s hidden risks from Web-based security threats and bandwidth abuse.
• Enforce Internet usage policies to increase employee productivity and reduce risks associated with Web use.
• Anti-virus and firewalls do not protect against Web-based threats. WSX blocks web-based threats at the source for fewer network disruptions to business operations
