Internet Monitoring, Web Security and Internet Access Control Software
GFI WebMonitor 2009™ boosts employee productivity by giving you complete internet access control to monitor what users are browsing and downloading in real-time. Research by IDC shows that up to 40% of employee Internet access is non-work related. As a network administrator, internet monitoring software provides you the tools that enable you to have complete Internet access control to monitor employees' web browsing activities and to ensure that any files downloaded are free of viruses and other malware.
GFI WebMonitor is now available in two versions:
- GFI WebMonitor 2009 – as a standalone proxy version which works in most network environments
- GFI WebMonitor for ISA Server – a dedicated plug-in for Microsoft ISA Server only
Internet Monitoring, categorization and web filtering coverage of over 205m URLs
GFI WebMonitor 2009 features WebGrade™, a site categorization database which enables you to manage what sites users can browse and block access to websites in particular categories, such as adult, online gaming, personal email, P2P, Facebook, MySpace, travel websites and more. Internet monitoring is made easy with this extensive database that provides URL coverage for 205,000,000 domains and that is updated daily.
Web security to protect against viruses, spyware, malware and phishing scams
GFI WebMonitor 2009 offers web security features that allow you to control your employees' internet access by monitoring what files employees are downloading, to block file-types such as MP3s and to scan all files for viruses, spyware and malware using multiple anti-virus engines.
