Cyberoam fights emerging threats with advanced security pack

Cyberoam has announced the availability of advanced network security with the latest version of Cyberoam firmware.
With the current enhancements, Cyberoam offers greater control over user surfing through HTTPS URL filtering and increase in the web database categories to reflect emerging surfing trends. Further, it prevents data leakage and meets regulatory compliance requirements through reporting of HTTP uploads, detection of phone home spyware and multiple syslog server support.
“SSL tunnels hide user activity and result in anonymous surfing,” said Abhilash Sonwane, VP-Product Management, Cyberoam. “With SSL encrypted traffic comprising a significant percentage of all traffic going through corporate gateways, it can result in a huge security hole in networks as it opens users to SSL-based proxies that bypass most content filtering solutions,” added Sonwane.
Through Cyberoam, businesses and educational institutions will now be able to block access to unauthorized websites hosted over SSL, protecting them from risks of failing regulatory compliance, data leakage, spread of malicious content and unproductive downloads through web-based proxy sites and applications.
