This integration allows organizations to centrally access detailed Websense web security and filtering reporting on employee Internet use and security threats. Data received through SIEM technology helps protect organizations from new and emerging web-based dangers, and keeps organizations compliant under multiple rules and regulations, including Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), Payment Card Industry Standard (PCI), and California SB 1386.

Through the integration, Websense web security data and employee internet usage patterns are viewed along with other network and security data sources, such as perimeter security, network, application, and host data, offering a holistic view of compliance and security across the enterprise. With this, Network Intelligence customers are provided real-time and historical security and compliance analysis, as well as powerful reporting and compliance alerts. Network Intelligence SIEM technology continues to expand its value proposition by collecting and protecting all of the data critical to compliance and security infrastructures.

“Network Intelligence is the first security information and event management solution to interoperate with Websense,” said Steve Kelley, director of strategic alliances for Websense, Inc. “Network Intelligence has given us a clear indication of the value they place on providing Fortune 1000 customers with a complete view of security events across the entire enterprise.”

Websense software protects companies and employees who use the internet from a growing number of threats such as phishing, spyware and malicious code prevalent on peer-to-peer (P2P) sites, as well as enhancing security, improving employee productivity and reducing legal liability. The software closes the time and technology gaps left open by antivirus and network security infrastructure to protect against security breaches such as malicious code outbreaks, Trojan horses and keylogging software.

“Websense and Network Intelligence interoperability enables enterprise customers to add web-based threats to their compliance and security posture,” said Upesh Patel, vice president for product marketing at Network Intelligence.
