How Secure Web Gateway Works
To protect your network against threats arising from the web, Web Gateway filters the traffic that goes out and comes in.
Based on the implemented web security rules, Web Gateway filters the requests that users send to the web from within
your network, as well as the responses that are sent back from the web. Embedded objects sent with requests or
responses are also filtered.
As a result of the filtering process, requests, responses, and embedded objects, are allowed or blocked.
To perform the filtering process, Web Gateway uses a rule engine and several filter engines or modules, for example,
the Anti-Malware module or the URL Filter module. These modules complete particular jobs when requests and
responses are processed based on the implemented web security rules.
You can configure the web security rules and the behavior of the filter modules to adapt them to the requirements of
your organization.
The filtering process also relies on the operating system of Web Gateway, which is Skyhigh Security Linux Operating
System, version 3 (MLOS 3).
