Introduction to Websense
Websense is a global security leader and Gartner ‘Magic Quadrant’ luminary that integrates Web Security, Email Security and Data Security to protect essential information and enable productive, safe use of the Internet platform. Websense Essential Information Protection defends cross-channel communications, safeguards Web 2.0 usage, and prevents data loss. Protection is underpinned by the ThreatSeeker Network, an advanced infrastructure for early threat discovery across email and web channels, real-time identification and blocking of high-risk web sites, and data identification techniques and technologies. Websense Web, Email and Data Security solutions use security intelligence from the ThreatSeeker Network to provide the most up-to-date protection from data loss, unwanted content, and malicious threats.

Web Security
Web 2.0 has changed how companies use the Internet. Through sites like Facebook and LinkedIn, employers are creating content and, in moments, sharing it with thousands of others. Content on these sites is dynamic so it flies under the radar of legacy security systems. To enjoy Web 2.0 at work, business needs new ways of protecting essential information.

Reactive web filtering measures can’t keep up with constantly changing content. Malware can appear on trusted sites with good reputations just as easily as on other sites. And since more Web-based applications are becoming available, the Web is now the primary vector for malware.

A deep understanding of the Web and how people use it makes Websense uniquely qualified to offer Essential Information Protection in the Web 2.0 world. Websense web security solutions provide complete coverage, visibility, and control over who can send what information, where, and how.

Data Security
From tarnished brand reputation and loss of customer confidence, to penalties and fines from regulators, the adverse impact of a data breach are clear. What isn't so clear is how to keep tabs on confidential data without getting in the way of business. The problem is exacerbated with mobile computing devices such as laptops, peripheral storage devices, and easy access to client software with file download and file sharing capabilities, all creating more opportunities for data loss. If the loss compromises customer information, does it violate PCI or HIPAA regulations? If it is intellectual property that is lost, what is the long-term financial impact to the company's profit margin?

Websense Data Security solutions offer the leading data loss prevention (DLP) technology to identify, monitor and protect confidential data. Using the combined content inspection techniques of Websense Web Security and Data Security technologies, Websense Data Security solutions accurately prevent data loss, secure business processes, and help manage compliance and risk.

Don't be caught off guard by your executives, shareholders, and auditors when they ask if you are doing enough to protect your confidential information; prove it with visibility over who is using what data and how they are using it.
