Websense Unveils TRITON™
Architecture Unifying Web, Data and Email Security |
SAN DIEGO, CA, Feb 09, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX News Network) --
Websense, Inc. (NASDAQ: WBSN), a global leader in content security,
today introduced the new Websense® TRITON? unified security
architecture, combining Websense Web, data and email security
technologies into a single platform delivering unified content
analysis and management. The Websense TRITON architecture integrates
the real-time Web content analysis and malware protection of the
industry-leading Websense Web Security Gateway with industry-leading
Websense Data Security Suite and Websense Email Security to protect
organizations and their essential information from blended threats
and targeted attacks while easing administration and lowering total
cost of ownership.
According to Brian Burke, program director, Security Products at IDC
Research, the need has never been greater for a new unified security
paradigm to provide consistent protection from both inbound threats
and outbound risk with single policy management for on-premise and
security-as-a-service (SaaS) deployments across dispersed
enterprises. "The Web has become the preferred platform from which
cybercriminals launch their various types of complex malware attacks
on individuals and businesses, because it is perceived to be an easy
way to access valuable information assets," said Burke, IDC. "To be
effective against today's modern threats, Web security technologies
must have robust data loss prevention and be capable of maintaining
compliance and control by analyzing inbound and outbound Web traffic
in real-time, and must also provide a unified platform for
on-premise and SaaS solutions so security policies can be applied
and enforced equally across even dispersed enterprises."
To meet this need, TRITON is the first security architecture to
integrate enterprise-class data loss prevention (DLP) technology
into Web security gateway and email security solutions, delivering
TruContent? intelligence -- the real-time analysis and
classification of inbound and outbound content for protection from
inbound threats including zero-day Web exploits and malware, and
outbound risk such as data loss, acceptable use violations and
non-compliance for regulated data. Today's emerging threats and
targeted attacks -- like the recent Aurora attack that was
propagated over the Web and email, and targeted specific
organizations' sensitive data -- evade traditional antivirus and
security solutions, demonstrating the need for unified Web, data and
email security.
In addition to unifying market-leading Web, data and email security
technology, TRITON is the industry's only security platform to
deliver TruHybrid? -- unifying policy management and reporting
infrastructure across on-premise, security-as-a-service (SaaS) and
hybrid deployment models. TRITON allows organizations to set
persistent security policies across geographically dispersed offices
and remote workers, and easily manage those policies from a single
management console for both their on-premise and SaaS Web, data and
email security solutions.
By delivering TruContent intelligence and TruHybrid, TRITON
consolidates organization's Web, data and email security solutions
into a single architecture, improves security coverage for dispersed
offices and remote employees, and reduces the complexity and cost of
deploying and managing security implementations across distributed
enterprises. TRITON provides customers a lower total cost of
ownership (TCO) for enterprise security by easing IT administration
and reducing the need for on-premise hardware requirements at
dispersed locations, without sacrificing security. Organizations can
deploy on-premise software or appliance at the headquarters and
larger offices, and cover their remote locations with SaaS security
-- while managing the entire Web, data, and email security
architecture from one unified management console.
"Hybrid security solutions that provide a unified platform of SaaS
and on-premise deliver a higher degree of security while addressing
the needs of organizations with decentralized offices and mobile
workers, when compared to a single deployment model," said Burke.
"We have been pursuing this unified content security strategy with
relentless focus since early 2007 by developing, acquiring and
integrating our industry-leading Web, email and data security
technologies and expanding our ThreatSeeker? content analysis and
threat detection capabilities," said Websense President John
McCormack. "All this was done not so we could simply offer SaaS
versions of our security products as some other vendors do, but so
we could pave the way to the future of enterprise security by
combining the power of on-premise, real-time content security with
the ease of management and lower total cost of ownership provided by
SaaS solutions. Above all, TRITON provides Websense customers the
best protection against modern threats at a lower total cost of
ownership."
Availability
The Websense TRITON solution is currently available to qualified
organisations as part of an early adopter program. It is planned to
reach full general availability for upgrade and purchase in April.
