Many network and security applications are completely blind to the contents of SSL-encrypted communications, resulting in a gaping hole in the enterprise security architecture. This allows the introduction of rogue applications, unrestricted web surfing, virus and spyware distribution and other serious threats to an organizations information assets.
SSL Locksmith offers web-based management and configuration. To ensure privacy and regulatory compliance, white list and black list filters control which sites and connections are decrypted. Also, even though the product is used in-line, it offers “fail to wire” bypass functionality, which eliminates any potential for disruption in service.
SSL Locksmith will be sold as a stand-alone product and can be used with any packet analysis or capture solution, including intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS and IPS), data leakage prevention systems (DLP), network forensics solutions, and web content monitoring solutions.
