The company has released a security solution that combines web security, data loss prevention, appliance and SaaS.

The Websense Web Security Gateway Anywhere is part of the TRITON system and Websense has said that it delivers “industry firsts” in threat and risk prevention.

Adam Bradley, ANZ Country Manager, Websense, explained, “Modern businesses want to harness the power of new communication, collaboration and Web 2.0 business tools, but they also want to be protected from advanced persistent threats that are so pervasive.

“Websense Security Gateway Anywhere delivers modern security to fight today’s threats at the lowest total cost of ownership. By enabling our industry-leading Web security and Web DLP to be deployed both on-premise and as SaaS from one single management console, we’re making it easier for our customers to leverage the Web-based tools that they need for their business, while protecting their essential information.” Chris Christiansen, Program Vice President, Security Products and Services, IDC, added, “IDC believes that unified content security solutions with a hybrid architecture offer enterprises an opportunity to deploy ‘borderless security’ to help address their mobility, remote worker, and branch office security issues.”
