Web Security Overview

Web 2.0 has changed how companies use the Internet. Through sites like Facebook and LinkedIn, employers are creating content and, in moments, sharing it with thousands of others. Content on these sites is dynamic so it flies under the radar of legacy security systems. To enjoy Web 2.0 at work, business needs new ways of protecting essential information.

Reactive Internet security measures can’t keep up with constantly changing content. Malware can appear on trusted sites with good reputations just as easily as on other sites. And since more Web-based applications are becoming available, the Web is now the primary vector for malware.
