Wavecrest Computing Unveils New Product Enhancements

Wavecrest Computing recently released new versions of its CyBlock Web-use filtering solutions. New features include bandwidth management, coaching, and additional custom filtering and reporting capabilities.


Melbourne, FL, May 15, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wavecrest Computing, a recognized leader in policy-based Web-use management solutions since 1996, announced new features to their business web filters -- CyBlock Proxy v6.7 and CyBlock for ISA / TMG v6.7.  Wavecrest Computing's CEO, Dennis McCabe states that the majority of these added features are a direct result of feedback received from their current customers.  He also indicated that "dynamically filtering employee Web access, decreasing or avoiding bandwidth costs, and maximizing network speed are core concerns for our customers."  Specifically, the addition of bandwidth management, enhanced URL filtering, and coaching features were added to help customers more efficiently manage Internet usage and achieve improved workforce and network productivity.

New enhancement highlights:

  • Coaching - Allows authenticated/authorized users the option to override CyBlock's blocking function reducing the amount of user requests for policy exceptions.
  • Categorization Enhancements - More Web visits are now categorized due to URL path and parameter matching.  This approach goes considerably beyond traditional domain-only matching, providing more robust filtering and reporting.
  • Bandwidth Management - Limits lower priority Web traffic during periods of high bandwidth consumption to allow unimpaired availability for business-critical operations.
