Cybersecurity

ProxyShield: an additional layer of control for your organisation

ProxyShield centralises and controls corporate web traffic, providing greater visibility into how users access the Internet. The proxy sits between the user and the destination web server. Instead of establishing a direct connection, two separate connections are created: one between the user and ProxyShield, and another between ProxyShield and the requested destination. This architecture gives organisations greater control over corporate Internet access and the ability to enforce security policies centrally.

Does your organisation need ProxyShield?

ProxyShield is particularly valuable for organisations that:

  • Manage a large number of users or devices.
  • Need to establish corporate web access policies or gain greater visibility into Internet traffic.
  • Want to restrict access to specific destinations or content categories.
  • Need to reduce users’ exposure to potentially risky web activity.
  • Want to centralise Internet access through a controlled security layer.
  • Manage sensitive information or operate environments with demanding security requirements.
  • Want to strengthen their cybersecurity strategy with an additional layer of control over web access.

Technology

ProxyShield uses a proxy architecture that acts as an intermediary between corporate users and the web services they access.

This architecture enables access policies, traffic logging and browsing restrictions to be applied centrally, giving IT and cybersecurity teams greater visibility and control over corporate web traffic.

Industries that can benefit

ProxyShield can deliver particular value across:

  • Large enterprises and multi-site organisations, where centralised web policies simplify security management across users and locations.
  • Public sector organisations, helping control web access across corporate networks and endpoints.
  • Banking, insurance and financial services, where traffic visibility and secure access are particularly important.
  • Manufacturing and industry, protecting corporate networks with large numbers of connected users and workstations.
  • Education and universities, enabling different browsing policies to be applied according to user profiles.
  • Professional services and consulting firms, strengthening protection in environments handling confidential customer information.
  • Retail and distribution, particularly across organisations with multiple locations, stores and users.
  • Logistics and transportation, centralising access policies across distributed environments.
  • Technology and telecommunications, adding an additional layer of protection and control for users and corporate devices.
