Large Enterprise

Organizations of every size and in every field face a complex challenge in securing the computing environment they rely on to conduct business. It’s no longer just the worry that employees are accessing inappropriate websites. The growing prevalence of harmful applications on the web and the exploding use of instant messaging and peer-to-peer file sharing have dramatically increased the risks that organizations face - risks to security, of legal liability, of loss of productivity, and to crucial IT resources.

Education

ITSecureOne offers solutions that are used by thousands of schools and universities worldwide which allow educational institutions to transparently monitor, report on, and manage internet, protocol, and application usage.  We have a thorough/comprehensive understanding of today’s educational challenges and a long history of supporting these institutions.

Our Websense solution enables schools to filter out inappropriate content while allowing relevant information to reach students. Additionally, school IT administrators are able to customize internet usage policies by user, group, workstation, or network. Thus, it is easy to enable faculty to access a different range of sites than students.  MP3s, streaming video, and online chats require a great deal of bandwidth and can seriously affect the network’s speed and performance. Websense allows schools to block sites with bandwidth-intensive content, thus improving overall network performance, along with conserving expensive network bandwidth.

ITSecureOne’s partners’ best-in-class product offerings help with federal law compliance and avoidance of legal liability.  Laws like the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) can penalize schools that don’t use web filtering software by withholding federal internet and computer funding. Websense meets CIPA criteria.  Another legal concern for educators is lawsuits brought by concerned parents and organizations. Installing the correct software on your network limits legal liability by blocking inappropriate and objectionable material.

 

Government / Public Sector

Government and public sector agencies must be able to provide secure access to employees, citizens, and suppliers around the world.  Because they ultimately answer to taxpayers, government and public sector organizations must select effective, yet economical, software solutions.  Internet misuse can pose a variety of problems for agency managers and IT administrators, and, increasingly, it can even be dangerous. It is important for agencies to protect themselves from the legal liabilities, the security breaches, and the productivity loss that can result from unmanaged internet use.

ITSecureOne’s premier partner offers the Websense solution.  Government and public sector agencies choose Websense because of its ability to integrate with a variety of enterprise-level internet appliances, as well as for its robust Master Database, which includes more than 20 million websites, in more than 50 languages, classified into more than 90 categories. In fact, Websense software is used in more than 500 government organizations.  Websense software provides a flexible tool with which to manage internet use according to time of day, department, and users and groups.

Health Care

Hospitals, clinics, and medical facilities worldwide are protecting themselves against internet misuse in the workplace by deploying employee internet monitoring software.  Health care organizations require software solutions that will prevent inappropriate web access at work, reduce legal liability, increase security, and improve employee productivity.  ITSecureOne can assist health care organizations with these requirements, along with the flexibly to manage internet use according to time of day, department, and users and groups by automating the organization’s written internet usage policy, thus taking the burden off managers and IT administrators.

For health care organizations, compliance with the Privacy and Security Rules of the 1996 Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a critical consideration.  ITSecureOne’s solutions allow organizations to easily manage and monitor access to applications. This policy-based control of desktop application launches provides organizations with a significant step towards HIPAA compliance, while also adding necessary internet security benefits. These benefits include ensuring that sensitive internal applications are not accessed by certain employees, that hacking tools are not launched anywhere on the network, and that peer-to-peer and spyware applications are prevented from executing.

Financial / Bank / Insurance

Financial institutions must protect vast quantities of sensitive data. The finance industry has to be vigilant against unauthorized access to financial or transaction data, knowing how customers would react to news that confidential data had been stolen or compromised.  Financial institutions must also protect themselves from spyware and malicious mobile code (MMC) that is increasingly common on web sites.  In fact, according to industry data, nearly half (48.6 percent) of MMC is embedded on web sites that many companies would normally allow employees to access freely, such as travel sites and search engines.  Section 501 of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley (GLB) Act mandates that financial services firms implement and enforce a written "information security program" to protect non-public customer data.  It is therefore important that financial institutions be able to monitor and track any electronic information entering or exiting their messaging systems as an integral part of IT security.

Legal

The legal industry operates under a standing defined requirement to protect the integrity of its records and the confidentiality of its clients. The internet has revolutionized the way organizations manage and exchange information, but this era of electronic documents has also produced new security concerns. Legal firms must also limit their own legal liability arising from employees accessing the internet at work.  The legal industry must safeguard confidential data from hackers both inside and outside the office walls.
