Monitor and control web activity

Uncontrolled web activity can impact productivity, lead to malware infections, increase costs and potential legal liabilities, as well as a bruised company image. GFI WebMonitor delivers unique web filtering capabilities by combining application-based traffic filtering with a website categorization functionality. Together they allow accurate control over what users are doing online and the applications they are using.

 

Manage bandwidth and internet usage

Browsing websites like YouTube® and spending time on social media sites like Facebook can take up a huge chunk of bandwidth. GFI WebMonitor’s bandwidth control capabilities help administrators manage how that bandwidth is utilized and, in turn, reduce costs. Intuitive dashboards give a clear, detailed picture of how much bandwidth goes into productive activities, and how much of it is wasted on fruitless browsing. Then take full control over how it should be used.

 

Secure downloads and web browsing

Protecting the network against web-based threats is a major challenge for IT and security admins. Ignoring the dangers of online activity can lead to malware infections or data breaches. As a result organizations could incur heavy costs, poor productivity, downtime, compromised business-critical information and increased IT costs to repair the damage. GFI WebMonitor scans downloads in real-time using up to 3 antivirus engines to ensure malware-free downloads.
