Company Cisco has started the new software product which will help the companies to find in the networks potentially dangerous content received on sites from a so-called Dark part of the Network (Dark Web).
The program under name Cisco IronPort Web Usage Controls should find about 90 % of all undesirable content ti which managed to avoid detection from outside system administrators and web safety appendices.
According to representatives Cisco, computer users become more and more grounded in sphere of any detour of Internet filters at themselves on work. For masking of those resources which they visit, proxies-servers and other technologies are even more often applied.
A dark part of the Network we name those resources which create problems for business as their content remains not noticed in a corporate network, - Kevin Kennedy (Kevin Kennedy), representative Cisco explains.
For example, if one of workers of the company comes on site Facebook. com from office computer, usually the IT Department can give the data about that, what is the time the person has spent in a popular social network. However, if the employee is connected to Facebook through one of thousand proxies-sites, the system administrator cannot receive any data about time spent by it in, informs.
Also in Cisco notice that pornosites are blocked to known addresses on the Internet. However such sites often change the addresses that allows employees of many companis to visit them free on work.
It occurs, and the companies not no means always in a course. The majority of people such resources on work, but not do not visit all. For many young men use of proxies-servers for the latent access to certain sites is not such a challenge, - Kennedy has noted.
As he said, existing ON can block only about 20 % of all undesirable sites whereas the others of 80 % remain not noticed (them name term Dark Web). At the same time, tests of new product Ironport Web Usage Controls have shown that this program increases coverage of undesirable resources for constant blocking by 50 % in comparison with decisions of the previous generation.
Ironport unites in itself a filtration of sites under the list with a special dynamic cursor which is able to scan web pages in real time and to distinguish their maintenance. Besides, the program can distinguish use of proxies-servers.
