Check Point URL Filtering vs. Symantec Web Security Service

Check Point's URL Filtering solution is designed to enhance web security by controlling access to a vast array of websites, categorized by users, groups, and machines. This approach safeguards users from malicious sites and promotes safe internet usage. By integrating UserCheck technology, it educates users on web usage policies in real time, fostering a more informed and secure browsing environment.

Symantec Web Security Service (WSS) provides the same proactive web protection capabilities delivered by the market’s leading on-premises Secure Web Gateway, Symantec ProxySG, but delivered as a resilient and performant cloud security service. Sitting between employees, wherever they are located, and the Internet, the service protects the enterprise from cyber threats, controls and protects corporate use of cloud applications and the web, prevents data leaks, and ensures compliance with all company information and web/cloud access policies.
