Administrators will find the appliance a snap to use. A clearly defined menu leads users directly to the elements to create and manage policies. That ease of use extends to both logging and reporting tools. The learning curve should be minimal for any administrator with a basic network and security knowledge.
Policies can be quickly modified to allow certain users extended rights or even control access by a schedule. Perhaps a business may want to block all IM traffic, except during lunch, and when that traffic is allowed, still monitor it for privacy concerns. Rules and policies can be defined for specific groups, such as allowing the HR department to have access to social security numbers, but block the transmission of that data from the rest of the organization.
The simple method of blocking, allowing or logging traffic helps to keep administrators in control of the data stream. Logging proves to be a valuable capability for discovering what traffic is on the network when and who is generating it. For the ultimate in privacy protection, administrators can choose to block all traffic and then create rules for only the traffic that is allowed.
All things considered, PacketSure proves to be a powerful tool that allows solution providers to come to terms with the new expression "corporate privacy" and works as an ideal product for solution providers looking for a piece of the compliance pie.
