What is your primary use case for Cisco Web Security Appliance?

Cisco Web Security Appliance is used to secure users from malicious threats across the internet and applications they access on different cloud platforms. It is a dedicated solution for protecting users from various internet threats and provides a centralized dashboard for visibility and control over accessed apps.

We use the solution for web security. We have Netskope for DLP. We opted for the Cisco solution for its cost-effectiveness. We use all its features effectively to prevent unnecessary expenses. We implemented Cisco Web Security Appliance to address the challenge of ensuring security for remote workers. Employees working from home operate outside the company's network, potentially exposing the organization to various risks as they access the internet directly. Without enforcing company policies, there's a heightened vulnerability to data breaches. We can extend protection to remote users by deploying Cisco Web Security Appliance, even when not connected to the company's network. This ensures that corporate data remains secure regardless of the user's location.

I use Cisco Web Security Appliance in my company for proxy-related purposes.

We use Cisco Web Security Appliance as a forward proxy, and all the web requests to the web servers are filtered through it.

We are using Cisco WSA as a proxy solution. We control Internet browsing so colleagues will access websites securely.

We use the tool as a filter and proxy.

We use Cisco Web Security Appliance for many things like firewalls, site-to-site VPN, routing, etc. We can use it for remote work.

Cisco Web Security Appliance can be used as a proxy for sending all traffic to the internet. In that case, I can apply security policies and provide anti-malware, protection, and attack prevention with this security appliance. Additionally, there is some advanced functionality, such as security orchestration and security incident management appliance integration. You are able to have full protection and incident management. This solution can be deployed in the cloud or on-premise. I am using a virtual infrastructure which is the easiest infrastructure.

I am a reseller and work with clients to set up web and email security. Most of my clients focus on web security where they connect with proxy servers to view security items that relate to antivirus, threat defense, and anti-malware. The solution is used to enforce security when accessing the web and as a transparent proxy for smartphones and tablets.

Our company works solely on government projects. Hyperconverged infrastructure is one portion of our use case for Web Security Appliance because it's a bundled solution that includes cyber security, network, the passive component, storage, and HCI. We are based in India and we have over 10,000 employees. We are a Cisco gold partner and I am deputy general manager of presales.

Cisco Web Security Appliance is used for security, proxying, and obviously proxy caching to save circuit bandwidth, but it is also used for security features because it is integrated into our ecosystem.

We are just using the solution for internal purposes. When we need to browse the internet, our staff will either be allowed or refused access to the internet. All of the internet is accessed via the server.

We primarily use the solution for security and controlled internet access. We just finished deploying one for one of our clients that actually bought both devices. That was just before COVID that we implemented it, so we just finished it now.

We use this solution as our web security gateway and as an additional proxy.

We use the solution basically for web filtering. Being an organization distributed across multiple locations, DNS security is handled centrally with the help of a Cisco Umbrella.  

We primarily use the solution to verify the identity of users that are connecting to the network. It's used to check the compliance of their systems before they are able to connect.

We use this solution to restrict prohibited websites and applications. It's a good solution. Within our organization, there are roughly 400 people using this solution. We plan to continue using this solution.

We use Cisco Web Security Appliance as a security proxy when using the web.

We are system integrators and deploy solutions in our client's environment. The primary use case is to allow or deny access to sites or special networks.

We are using the Cisco Web Security Appliance as part of the security in our data center. Our data center includes equipment and software from a variety of vendors including Cisco, Dell EMC, Microsoft, and Veritas.

We are using this solution as a proxy.
