attacks and rogue Internet code.
- Block potentially
harmful, security-risk sites and minimize the risk of
harmful modification to corporate desktops and

effective layer of protection against malicious code
at the Internet gateway.

its source, before it can enter the corporate network.
Spyware is software that
gathers information without the user's knowledge and
relays it to advertisers or other interested parties. It
can collect and transmit information on keystrokes, Web
surfing habits, passwords, email addresses and more. By
blocking the Spyware category, customers can:
- Block the
communication between Spyware applications and their
host servers.
- Stop the distribution
of employee information to unknown parties.
- Prevent liability and
bandwidth issues for their organizations.
- Identify the presence
of Spyware applications and activities on their
networks by generating reports with Websense Reporter.
The Security Premium Group is
automatically updated daily with newly infected sites, so
you can help to protect your network from the latest
Web-borne viruses and other malicious Web content without
intervention.
According to the
Department of Justice, the Nimda worm cost companies
considerable downtime and an estimated clean-up cost of
$2.6 billion. By implementing the Security Premium Group, you can
