Comprehensive, Unified Threat Management - Keeping Your Enterprise Safe, Productive and Profitable
By Ed Murphy
Director of Marketing Communications - SurfControl


Every day, Internet traffic - Web, email, IM and P2P - exposes your business to potentially devastating risks. Yesterday's viruses, spam, phishing and spyware are today's blended threats, devised to exploit multiple vulnerability points. And, left unsecured, these emerging threats will expose your organization to:

  • Financial Loss - through wasted employee and IT productivity, depleted system resources, and damaged brand equity
  • Legal Liability - stemming from employee access to, or the transmission of, inappropriate or illegal content
  • Data Theft - providing fodder for blackmail, identity theft, or corporate espionage

Complex Threats. Simple Solution
Just as threats have evolved, so has the solution. Yesterday you relied on a patchwork of point-solutions to keep viruses, spyware and spam at bay. However, unless your IT department has the time and budget to be 24/7 threat experts, you need an integrated, comprehensive suite, covering all possible threat entry points and vehicles. That's why SurfControl Enterprise Protection Suite gives you centralized threat protection from a single vendor, easing your administrative load and enabling easy enforcement of regulatory compliance.

The SurfControl Enterprise Protection Suite
Emerging blended threats are bypassing traditional security measures. Spam now carries viruses and fraudulent phishing links, and threats don't just come from the outside - sometimes they originate from inside company walls. As a result, the SurfControl Enterprise Protection Suite was designed to cover all of the threat bases - protecting inbound, as well as outbound communications - from the network perimeter, to the desktop, to the remote office - whether it be spam, spyware, phishing, or a blended threat hybrid. This is complete, unified threat protection, backed by global 24/7 Adaptive Threat Intelligence (ATI). This is powerful protection.

The Enterprise Protection Suite includes:

  • SurfControl Web Filter
  • SurfControl E-mail Filter & RiskFilter
  • SurfControl Enterprise Threat Shield
  • SurfControl Mobile Filter

Minimize Vulnerability. Maximize Visibility
Behind the scenes, SurfControl's ATI Service ensures continuous protection against emerging "day-zero" threats through:

  • SurfControl's Global Threat Experts, a worldwide network of Internet security professionals, working 24/7 to identify emerging threats and provide continuously updated protection
  • An advanced technical architecture interconnecting every element of the SurfControl Enterprise Protection Suite, stopping threats no matter how they attempt to enter your organization

And, when it comes to reporting and monitoring, SurfControl's fully-integrated, easy-to-use tools give you instant visibility into emerging threats, including your company's response to them.
