Websense
ThreatSeeker Network
The Websense ThreatSeeker™
Network adaptive security technology
uses more than 50 million
real-time data collecting systems
that continuously monitor Internet
content—including new and dynamic
content—for emerging threats. The
Websense ThreatSeeker Network
feeds this intelligence into its Web
security, messaging security, and
data loss prevention solutions. As a
result, Websense is able to adapt to
the rapidly changing Internet at
speeds not possible by traditional
security solutions and basic email
filtering solutions.
The ThreatSeeker Network:
• Analyzes more than 40 million
Web sites per hour
• Assigns reputation to more than
2 million domains, networks, IP
addresses, and hosts every hour
• Scans nearly 10 million emails for
unwanted content and malicious
code every hour
• Captures more than 10 million
unsolicited spam, phishing, or
exploit campaigns every day
In the past, most Web content was static and predictable. But today’s reality is
that Web content—even from so-called “trusted” sites—is constantly changing
with end-users encouraged to post, edit, or manipulate content. The most
popular and heavily-trafficked sites that make the most use of dynamic Web 2.0
content, are also the most vulnerable to attack. In fact, according to Websense®
research covering the first half of 2008, over 60 percent of these top 100
sites either hosted malicious content or contained a masked redirect to an
illegitimate site.*
