Websense's Global Threat Experts monitor and analyze emerging Internet threats from Web, email, spyware, and other malicious applications around-the-clock to deliver up-to-date "cross-pollination" protection against today's blended threats.

Secure Content Management
Websense Email Filter prevents malicious, inappropriate or confidential information from entering or leaving an organisation by examining every layer of an email, including zipped file attachments and embedded images.
