RSS feedsInternet security provider, Webroot has released enhanced versions of its solutions- Web Security SaaS and Email Security SaaS. Updates to the solutions include web browsing quotas to enforce internet use policies and an email encryption service to secure sensitive email communications.
As email encryption becomes mandatory for email security, organisations are increasingly faced with legal, regulatory and compliance requirements. The enhanced versions aim at addressing security concerns by blocking threats in the cloud and keeping malware off the network.
Don Beck, general manager of SaaS, Webroot, said: “With the continued growth in volume and maliciousness of web threats, businesses today require more robust functionality to manage web security as well as employee Internet use.”
New features of the Web Security SaaS include extension of log duration to access detailed forensic data on internet use; enforcing company policies for time spent online, bandwidth used, and number of sites accessed; improved detection of malicious JavaScript and Shell code; enforcing “safe search”; and improving support for mobile users.
The added features of Email Security SaaS are automatic encryption of email communications to meet legal, compliance and regulatory requirements; allowing customers to easily deploy, configure and manage their services; and improving control over content of daily email summary reports enabling users to more effectively manage their inbox.
The updates are for protecting companies’ sensitive information amid increasing threats from sophisticated online frauds, the company informed.
