Legitimate web traffic entry

What differentiates F5 Secure Web Gateway Services from other similar products?

Secure Web Gateway Services differs from other software because it not only has the ability to filter and web reports, but also gives the user the detection of any malware, be it incoming or outgoing, as well as leading to perform an interception and inspection of SSL traffic in search of hidden malicious codes, it guarantees a single login which saves time, since it is not necessary to have to enter the data each time you want to enter the software, on the other hand your the system is based on the cloud so it allows for real time protection, it also allows you to see which users are visiting dangerous sites and who are not.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

What I like the most about this F5 software is that it allows you to visualize what each user does outside the facilities or based on the cloud, and all through a single console which facilitates management, which collects large amounts of data to analyze them and evaluate even advanced threats, in addition to verifying endpoints at the time of user entry and then ensuring that no vulnerability is escaped.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Its learning curve can be somewhat steep, especially for first time users, since they are facing a new technology, so carrying out the implementation can be a long and somewhat confusing process, and their iRules can be somewhat confusing as well. .

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Using this software if you have prior knowledge is really simple both its use and its implementation, but if it is a user with little knowledge of it, it is best to go to a previous preparation for it, because carrying out a good implementation will make the software performs as it should.

Pros

  • Saves Time
  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
