CurrentWare Gateway (Discontinued)

CurrentWare Gateway made it easy for businesses to support BYOD. Protect multiple platforms in your environment with just one solution. In one comprehensive solution, CurrentWare Gateway provided protection for multiple devices including PCs, laptops, Macs, iPhones, iPads, Android smartphones and tablets and Windows phones.

The CurrentWare Gateway did not require any client software deployment, making it easier to install and configure. This agentless infrastructure provided a more flexible solution for managing both in-house and guest devices, connecting to the company’s Internet.

Wireless Internet access is becoming increasingly essential in businesses, a benefit for both employees and visitors to access the web on their mobiles. However, with this convenience comes the concern of security and legal liabilities associated with inappropriate Internet usage. CurrentWare Gateway’s reliable technology delivered secure Internet access to mobile users without compromising the Internet experience while restricting access to inappropriate sites. It made it easy to manage a variety of mobile devices with just a single solution.

CurrentWare’s extensive URL Category database is used by both BrowseControl and CurrentWare Gateway. It includes over 100 categories, encompassing millions of URLs. Category filtering is an accurate way of instantly controlling the websites that can be accessed across your organization. Block malicious sites easily, by simply clicking on the relevant URL categories.

The URL Allowed and Blocked lists, enable you to add additional websites to complement the URL Category Filtering. The Allowed List, permits access to URLs that would normally be restricted if it is part of a blocked category. Conversely the Blocked List will restrict access to a site. The Allowed and Blocked lists can also be used to create your own custom lists independently of Category Filtering. There is no limit to the number of URLs that can be included in the Allowed and Blocked lists.
