8e6Client: Remote/Mobile Filtering

8e6Client

Enterprise-level Filtering for the Remote and Mobile User

The corporate world is becoming more remote and mobile everyday. Driven by improvements in wireless technologies and mobile devices, large numbers of employees are working in smaller remote offices, at home or on the road. However, most corporate IT staffs do not have a comprehensive and cost effective solution to enforce Internet use policies for remote or mobile users.

To address these urgent needs, 8e6 Technologies has developed the 8e6 Client to filter and secure off-site users from accessing inappropriate and malicious content of the Internet. As a software-based application that works in conjunction with an R3000 appliance, it’s simple to deploy, manage and maintain. The 8e6 Client provides enterprise-level filtering for your laptops and remote employees anytime, anywhere regardless of their Internet connection.

logs to a centralized 8e6 Enterprise Reporter within the corporate LAN for
reporting.
