Blue Coat ProxySG 8100 Series SG8100-20

Blue Coat ProxySG 8100 Series SG8100-20 ... with the power to protect and accelerate web communications and business applications.

Located at the Internet gateway, the ProxySG 8100 platform enables effective control of the enterprise's Internet traffic, including protection from spyware, malicious mobile code, inappropriate web usage, and potential legal liability - while actually improving web performance.

As the core of an organization's application delivery infrastructure, the ProxySG 8100 provides controlled acceleration of business applications across the globally-distributed enterprise. Leveraging Blue Coat's MACH5 technology, the ProxySG 8100 enables branch office users to enjoy the same LAN-like performance and experience as those located at headquarters or the data center.

Deployed at the data center, the ProxySG 8100 accelerates web applications and content from origin web servers, while securely isolating them from direct Internet access. Optional SSL services secure communications and off-load application servers from computationally-intensive processes.

Centralized policy administration is provided by Blue Coat Director, while Blue Coat Reporter provides log aggregation from multiple SG appliances into concise reports to analyze web communications and policy enforcement.
