Compare Forcepoint WebShield vs. Internet Lock

Forcepoint WebShield ensures secure HTTP traffic across the organization while granting access to web resources on less sensitive networks. This Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) data guard offers secure web browsing capabilities, facilitating the transfer of information from high-security networks to lower-level ones. It effectively supports a wide range of users engaged in cross-domain data transfers, serving as a reliable method for comprehensive information exploration and retrieval. By providing seamless network protection, WebShield empowers users to execute their tasks with enhanced security. Additionally, it enforces security policies that restrict access to certain server types and file formats when users operate within lower-level networks. All interactions, including requests and responses, undergo stringent security protocols such as dirty word scans, virus detection, and checks for malicious content. Recognized as a compliant cross-domain transfer solution, Forcepoint WebShield is endorsed by the Unified Cross Domain Services Management Office (UCDSMO) as part of its Cross Domain Baseline, ensuring it meets rigorous security standards. Moreover, its robust framework enhances the overall security posture of the enterprise while facilitating smooth data operations across domains.

Internet Lock serves as a robust solution for managing access and securing passwords for your internet connections and applications. This software empowers you to have complete oversight over the internet activities and programs on your computer. With Internet Lock, you can impose restrictions or set password protections on internet usage, establish schedules for internet access, safeguard specific internet applications linked to particular IP addresses or domains, and limit users to only the predetermined websites while blocking access to any undesired ones. Additionally, Internet Lock is effective in preventing unauthorized internet connections and program usage, as any application that is restricted by the software will not be able to connect to the internet. It also provides an added layer of security by requiring users to enter a correct password to access these protected applications for internet connectivity. When a user attempts to connect to the internet through a password-protected program, Internet Lock promptly displays a password entry window, and if the user fails to enter the correct password, the connection will be denied. This ensures that sensitive content and unauthorized access are kept at bay, promoting a safer browsing environment.
