Flexible deployment options

View list of supported platforms

SmartFilter® products fit seamlessly into almost any network environment and work with major firewalls, routers, proxies, cache devices, and security appliances. With over 30 supported platforms, SmartFilter products offer the widest range of deployment options to match your exact network needs.

Many SmartFilter configurations are natively embedded into a host platform and run On-Box™, providing unrivaled speed, reliability, and affordability, since no additional hardware is required to host the filtering. Because SmartFilter can process thousands of requests per second, our On-Box configurations are capable of scaling to meet the demands of the largest network deployments. In fact, SmartFilter running On-Box is the leading OEM choice with IT solution vendors such as McAfee, Blue Coat, and Computer Associates.

SmartFilter products also run off-box, providing additional flexibility and deployment options with minimal impact on your network. Secure Computing offers two options for off-box deployments: an in-line option that works with your Web proxy, cache, or firewall via the Internet Filtering Protocol (IFP) and a pass-by option called SmartFilter Web Inspector. Using Web Inspector, you can set up SmartFilter to passively monitor and filter all HTTP and HTTPS Web traffic generated from within the network. The setup requires minimal changes to the existing network infrastructure without the need to integrate a third-party Web proxy, Web cache, or firewall. SmartFilter Web Inspector is supported on Windows platforms.

Should your network require the deployment of multiple filtering host applications, SmartFilter products can be installed on or with each of these devices at no additional cost, making redundancy, fail-over, and additional scalability easier—and providing a lower Total Cost of Ownership for both IT and the entire organization.
