AT&T launched its Cloud Web Security for businesses, a cloud based offering that will provide real-time protection against viruses, malware, and compromised web sites that is built on Blue Coat Systems’ Security Policy and Enforcement Center.
Industry-leading proxy and policy technologies allow administrators to quickly and easily enforce broad-based or detailed policies for network access and use, says Bluecoat.
The enhancement to AT&T’s portfolio of managed security solutions will help organizations deploy new secure, cost-effective cloud service and web applications, enforcing consistent global security policies across wired, roaming, and mobile environments.
The Cloud Web Security brings benefits of reduced cost and complexity, real-time, dynamic malware protection, customized web application controls and powerful, intuitive policy management and reporting.
“Six months ago, we told our customers we’d deliver better end-to-end protection, making major improvements to our network-based defense, cloud security, secure mobile business, and threat management solutions. Since then, we announced significant enhancements in each of these areas, but we’re not stopping here. The launch of this new on-demand cloud security solution is an important milestone in our commitment to deliver improved security, analytics, and threat visibility to our customers.”
