3Com OfficeConnect Web Site Filter Software

The OfficeConnect Internet Firewalls are the affordable, effective way for small businesses to secure their networks. Hacker attack is a real risk and more common than many business people realize. If you have an Internet connection, hackers may get into your computers from anywhere in the world. Some want to steal data. Others spread havoc at random - using software easily available on the Internet to damage and destroy networks and information. It can pose a serious threat to your business.

In the past, robust high specification firewall protection was expensive, complex and required specialized in-house IT administration. Now you can have secure protection for a fraction of the cost and complexity. OfficeConnect Internet Firewalls are easy to install and configure. They keep the hackers out and can also control Internet usage from your LAN. You can prevent access to inappropriate material, keep a log of which sites are being accessed most frequently and analyze how much bandwidth your Internet connection is using. Your entire office can share a single IP address from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) saving you money, and possibly removing the need for a specialized router.

3Com OfficeConnect Internet Firewalls are a core part of the OfficeConnect family of products, providing small businesses with the power to share information, connect remote locations, set up powerful, comprehensive network servers, and access the Internet.

The OfficeConnect Web Site Filter provides Internet Firewalls with extended capabilities to control Internet access. You specify the categories of material and the Web Site Filter provides a list of thousands of controlled sites - and automatically updates it every week. Access to the sites can either be blocked or logged.
