Britannic Assurance, a business group within Britannic Group PLC, one of the UK's largest and most diverse financial services companies, has more than 1000 users on its Ethernet network. Like all modern organizations, Britannic Assurance needed to ensure the integrity of their network and databases as well as enforce their appropriate use policy. All across the UK and Europe, computer viruses and problems with indiscreet email and rampant non-business web surfing have plagued the financial services industry. Britannic Assurance wanted to ensure that they stopped these issues cold before they affected their network. The new system allows effective enforcement of appropriate use policy for web browsing and email and blocks inbound mail containing malicious viruses and spam.
