Application
Control: The Application Control feature provides a security technology
that automates the discovery of popular Internet applications and allows
administrators to control them using policies.
Application
Traffic Statistics Application Traffic Statistics and Reporting:
The Application Control real-time traffic tab shows bandwidth used by
inbound and outbound traffic as well as the number and type of concurrent
application connections. Details on which applications are being by specific
end-users is available in the reporting section of the product.
HTTP
Inspection: HTTP Inspection allows administrators to identify behavior
and filter web traffic according to HTTP methods, URLs, and headers. It
also allows them to create filters or use default filters to identify
web traffic, as well as import and export filters. After the traffic is
identified, IWSVA can control it according to policy settings that determine
the appropriate actions for specific traffic. For example, an HTTP Inspection
policy could prevent users from posting content on social networking or
webmail sites while still allowing them to read content.
Password
Override Action for Blocked URL Filtering Categories: The “blocked
with override” features allows administrators to set a category of URLs
to be blocked and then allow certain users to override the block action
by typing a password.
Time
Limit Action Available for URL Filtering Categories: Administrators
can allow specific URL categories to be accessed for a limited period
of time.
Time
Quota Extension for URL Filtering Time Limit Action: If the time
limit action is used for URL Filtering policies, there may be a need to
allow a time extension for browsing. In that case, the Time Quota Extension
feature allows administrators to add time for users to browse, if needed.
