The corporate world is becoming more remote and mobile every day. Driven by improvements in wireless technologies and mobile devices, large numbers of employees are working in smaller remote offices, at home or on the road. In schools, Internet-assisted learning extends beyond the classroom and into student's homes, providing more resources and better teacher-student communication. However, most IT staff or administrators do not have a comprehensive and cost effective solution to enforce Internet use policies for mobile users.
To address these urgent needs, 8e6 Technologies has developed the 8e6 Mobile Client to filter and secure off-site users from accessing inappropriate and malicious Web content. As a software-based application that works in conjunction with the R3000 Mobile appliance, it's simple to deploy, manage and maintain. The 8e6 Mobile Client provides total filtering for your laptops and remote users anytime, anywhere, regardless of their Internet connection, without the need to proxy web-traffic or handle remote web traffic on your network (VPN).
Diagram illustrates how the 8e6 Client installed on a mobile laptop is seamlessly filtered by the local R3000 inside the LAN and a remote 8e6 R3000 Mobile in the DMZ. Both R3000s send Web traffic back to a centralized 8e6 Enterprise Reporter for processing and reporting. KEY FEATURES:
