Kevin West quoted in Channel Web's article Websense Launches Branded Web Gateway Appliance
Websense (NDSQ:WBSN) has launched a Web 2.0 gateway appliance, incorporating real-time content filtering and threat protection in an advanced security platform.
Websense's new branded appliance, the Websense V10000 Secure Web Gateway, is aimed squarely at the growing number of enterprise and midmarket employees using social networking and other Web 2.0 sites. Executives say that the newly launched appliance fills a valuable and growing niche for companies whose employees are more frequently visiting Web 2.0 sites such as Facebook and Twitter -- and potentially exposing the company to risk -- on their downtime.
