Identifying Risk Areas
Websense Reporting Tools help your organization address such questions as:
• Are users creating a security risk by visiting websites that secretly install malicious mobile code
or spyware?
• How much network bandwidth is being consumed by users swapping files over peer-to-peer file
sharing networks?
• Are users inside or outside of the network spending too much of their work time at non-work
related sites and could any of these sites expose the organization to legal liability?
