Industry-leading web, content and application filtering

KerioControl Web Filter is a security service that allows administrators to allow, deny or limit the applications, websites and Internet services users can access. This powerful filter:

  • Protects users and infrastructure by preventing visits to known malicious sites or those that engage in phishing attacks or identify theft.
  • Blocks objectionable sites to ensure compliance and shield you from liability.
  • Increases productivity by limiting access by application or site content category to a specific time of day, selected users, and specific user locations.

With KerioControl Web Filter, you can block/allow applications or sites by application or site content category rather than specific application or URL. KerioControl Web Filter continually updates its list of thousands of applications and more than 6 billion web pages, placing them into 141+ categories — so you don’t need to continually track changing or new applications or sites.

The KerioControl Web Filter is included in the KerioControl hardware appliance and is also available as an add-on when KerioControl is deployed as a software or virtual appliance.
