The Problem

Due to sinking prices, the number of internet users has risen dramatically during the past years. High performance internet access (direct line, DSL etc.) has become an essential element of communication for many companies.

At the same time, the potential danger has risen exceedingly due to viruses, Trojans, Active X exploits and critical web contents, such as pornography, violence etc. Furthermore, there are invisible financial losses caused by employees using the internet for private purposes, which entail great financial damage even in moderate measure.

All these are business risks which to this day have been neglected from the technical and organisational point of view as well as with respect to criminal law.

The target group

CEOs and IT decision-makers in nearly all companies ought to know the dangers which result from the use of internet. Apart from the protection of investments, one of the biggest problems is the situation concerning liability law within the development of national and European internet jurisdiction.

The solution

azeti WEBProtect is an appliance, i.e. a fusion of hardware and software. azeti WEBProtect is physically connected between the internet access router and the workstation (LAN). Immediately it starts work without the user noticing it.

Viruses, Trojans and other dangerous codes lurking on the internet are filtered in the background. A message displayed reminds the user that azeti WEBProtect has worked successfully. azeti WEBProtect knows the internet and has registered its contents in different categories. azeti WEBProtect decides independently which areas are no longer available from the company network, for user groups or even single work stations. A simple interface makes these settings a snap.

However, protection does not stop here. The azeti LiveUpdate program provides you permanently with the latest identification mechanisms and a rubric catalogue which is constantly increasing. In addition, azeti operates its own computer center which allows a round-the-clock (24/7) update supply worldwide.
