Secure Web
Communications and Accelerate Business Applications
The Blue Coat
SG family of appliances delivers a scalable
proxy platform architecture to secure
Web communications and accelerate delivery of
business applications.
Based on a custom, object-based operating
system with integrated caching and compression,
these proxy appliances leverage existing authentication
systems to enable flexible policy enforcement
on content, users, applications and protocols.
Blue Coat SG appliances are typically
deployed:
- At the Internet gateway (forward proxy)
to protect internal users and networks from
spyware, phishing attacks, inappropriate web
usage, and potential legal liability – while
actually improving web performance.
- At the edge of an organization’s application
delivery infrastructure for controlled acceleration
of key business applications, including file
services, rich media applications, and e-mail.
- In the DMZ (reverse proxy) to securely isolate
web servers from direct Internet access and
accelerate web-based applications and public
websites.
Each Blue Coat SG appliance includes our patented
Policy Processing Engine, which enables sophisticated
policies based on a wide range of attributes
to provide unmatched visibility, flexibility,
and control.
Delivered as a rack-mountable appliance
for simple installation and management,
Blue Coat SG is offered in a wide range of
sizes and configurations appropriate for remote
/ branch offices, Internet gateways, data centers,
and global service providers.
