Description:
Surfing the Internet can be like traversing a minefield. Threats like adware, spyware, and phishing scams lurk beneath seemingly innocent websites. How do you protect your employees from online exploits, without limiting access to the information-rich Internet?
With McAfee SiteAdvisor Enterprise, available in two versions, you don't have to impose restrictive policies that keep your employees from using the web for research and business projects. Your business users will have the freedom to surf online, protected from web-based threats. Featuring an intuitive color-coded rating system-green, yellow, red-or gray for unrated, SiteAdvisor Enterprise solutions give you an extra layer of protection at the desktop.
Ready to deploy across your organization with McAfee® ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO), SiteAdvisor Enterprise solutions can easily be installed for all business users. With SiteAdvisor Enterprise Plus, you can customize the authorization or blocking of website access, view reporting, control messaging, assign actions based on safety ratings, and implement additional protection for remote users-all to ensure policy compliance.
Always on the alert, SiteAdvisor stays up-to-date on the latest threats. It continually crawls the Internet with intelligent “bots,” or virtual computers, that download sites and scan them for malware. The bots even fill out registration forms to determine whether sign-up triggers spam. If the site contains malicious code or other suspicious activity, SiteAdvisor marks the site “red” for risky.
For specific information about the rated site, just click on the SiteAdvisor Enterprise button in your browser, or on the message that pops up when you mouse over a search result. You'll learn about email tests, download tests, links and affiliations, and annoyances. SiteAdvisor works with Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox.
When it comes to business web surfing, McAfee SiteAdvisor Enterprise solutions are an indispensable ally, keeping you safe without limiting your access to the Internet.
