WSX™ appliances from Celestix set a new high standard for effective Web security and high ease of use. Designed for small to medium businesses, WSX appliances deploy as platforms for world-leading Websense® Express software. Websense Express monitors Internet requests from employees and applies policy-based filters to those requests. Websense express also logs Internet activity, notifies users if they violate a policy, and provides detailed reports to administrators. If a user tries to visit an infected website, Websense Express blocks access to the site preventing damage to the user’s system and breaches to the network’s security.
