| Security for HTTPS/SSL traffic– prevents data leakage over HTTPS/SSL traffic and stops malware propagation by scanning encrypted traffic. |
|
| Instant Messaging Archiving and Control – allows archiving and customized security control over public IMs making them a cost effective and secure communication mechanism for the SMBs, which is equivalent to owning a private IM software. |
|
| Next-Gen UI – enables ease of use and secure GUI configuration for better security. |
