The Total Threat. Your company faces four basic web content threats:

Productivity Threats. Just 20 minutes of recreational surfing a day can cost a company with 100 employees over £4,000 per week. (At £25/hour/employee.)

Legal Threats. Employees can sue if you don't provide a work environment free of gender and minority harassment. That means taking reasonable care to block offensive Internet content.

Network Threats. An employee can crash your network just by logging into the wrong website. Other activity like recreational surfing and downloading MP3 files can divert valuable bandwidth from critical business needs.

Security Threats. Many viruses enter networks through web-based e-mail accounts or through other files downloaded from the web. That means you need to manage what files users can download.

The Total Solution
SurfControl Web Filtering automatically manages what web content is available and when, as defined by your policy. Managing this access can significantly reduce the risks of productivity threats, network threats, legal threats and security threats.
