WebMarshal 2006

To help counter the influx of spyware increasingly delivered to corporate networks via the web, content security firm, Marshal has announced the release of its Internet management solution, WebMarshal 2006, to stop spyware at the gateway, available for general release in late Q2, 2006.

To complement WebMarshal's existing web filtering technology and flexible access control, the new software is designed to promote responsible Internet use while providing protection for viruses, confidentiality breaches and downloading of inappropriate material. WebMarshal 2006 is the industry's first solution to combine URL filtering, content analysis, anti-spyware and anti-virus technologies in to a single solution.

New functionality within WebMarshal 2006 provides blacklists of known URLs that are associated with spammers or fraudulent phishing scams. This means that users who accidentally or intentionally attempt to access these sites will be protected from doing so. WebMarshal will also provide updated anti-virus features in line with sister email security product MailMarshal.

According to experts at Marshal, the threat of spyware infiltrating corporate networks via the Internet has never been greater. Criminals are becoming highly adept at integrating spyware and other forms of threats into emails with URLs. Phishing is a good example of the damage that can be caused by clicking through to an unknown website.

In addition to the URLCensor integration feature, WebMarshal 2006 will also provide enterprises with all the latest rules and policies from the Marshal Threat team who monitor the latest Internet security issues and provide updates to Marshal customers to secure them against these threats.

WebMarshal is suitable for integration with Microsoft ISA Server and Microsoft Proxy Server or can act as a standalone proxy if required. Capable of scaling to tens of thousands of users the software offers the industry's only total Internet security solution for web browsing.
