Can you believe that it is almost the end of the year already? A lot has happened for us this year, and it seems to have made the year go even faster. No matter how fast or slow the year went for you, it is time for all of us to think of the holiday shopping season that is coming up.
Every year, it is predicted that more and more of us will be using online shopping to get a good portion of our list taken care of. With time constraints in normal life, your employees are definitely going to sneak in some shopping on their work devices, clogging up your network bandwidth with nonessential traffic–and it probably won’t just be on Cyber Monday!
Don’t experience additional holiday stress. Go ahead and allow your employees a bit of freedom to do some surfing to find the right toy, tie, or TV for their loved ones. But also give yourself, your IT department, and your whole business the gift of knowing your mission-critical business operations come first, with the bandwidth management, filtering, and reporting tools in our CyBlock Employee Web-use Security Solution.
CyBlock will help you and your IT team with:
- Bandwidth Management
- Uncover Web activity that can cause network slowdowns.
- Spot spikes that could indicate excessive data use.
- Identify which categories have the most visits triggering high bandwidth usage.
- Pinpoint which bandwidth-intensive sites are being visited, hogging enterprise bandwidth, and potentially posing security risks.
- Automatically throttle nonessential traffic by content category or group.
- Stay informed with triggered alerts and real-time monitoring.
- Web-use Filtering and Reporting
- Limit the time users are online by the hour and day of the week.
- Identify risk, and analyze usage of your network resources.

- Get complete, accurate, actionable, & compliance-ready reports.
Find ways to satisfy all your business and employee needs. Give your employees the gift of online shopping time during this holiday season, while making sure your IT team receives the gift of proactively throttling bandwidth for noncritical applications, getting alerts, and gaining visibility into bandwidth hogs.
