I have had to do research on
that last year and found out that my hands down favorite surf control was
bought by Websense a product we use here in AIS.
I have found many products prior
to being employed here at MSU and I have found one product that was as impressive
as anything I have used and seen to date as far as a separate appliance.
It is called IPRISM by St. Bernard.
There are four units to choose
from and they are rack mountable from 2u to a mini 1u, We get very good pricing
since we are education and I would like to point out that it is very
configurable for your filtering and monitoring. Here is my contacts email
if you want to get more specific information.

Otherwise that a solution that
you could implement would be a small server that has ISA 2004 or newer installed
and you can have all the benefits and controls you need to keep your network
healthy.

Subject: [MSUNAG] Web / content filtering
Has anyone on this list has deployed web/content filtering
for workstations involved with business operations, at a router level?
We are looking for something that will block p2p, streaming
audio, allow white listing of various web sites, etc. So far from what
I’ve seen WebSense seems to be the best bet, as it can plug-in to our
existing Cisco PIX that sits at the edge of our network, and can utilize our
active directory groups for policies, etc.
