Websense has been named the winner of the Best Web Content Management Product in the U.S. Reader Trust category of the 2011 SC Magazine Awards. Websense, a clear leader in defining the content security market and in providing uniquely effective unified content security solutions, helps companies secure content, even in the toughest environments, such as social media, mobile devices, and in the cloud. The award was presented on February 15, 2011 at the SC Awards Gala. With a record number of nominations, the 2011 SC Awards U.S. were the most robust and competitive in the program's history.

The category and award are recognition that the security landscape has changed and that older perimeter-based solutions are no longer sufficient or effective against modern malware. Going beyond simply blocking malware, the Websense® Web Security Gateway (WSG) won the Best Web Content Management Product category by proving the success and overall impact of the Websense TRITON™ solution to theReader Trust Voting Panel. The Websense TRITON solution categorizes content including data in real time, which not only blocks malware and data theft, but also enables productive and compliant use of SaaS applications and the social Web, an increasingly vital part of collaboration and communication.

Indeed, organizations no longer have perimeters that can be secured. There are branch offices, mobile devices, and remote workers that need safe access to confidential corporate information -- no matter where it's created or used. Arguably, Websense and the Websense TRITON solution has done more than any other company to enable security, productivity, and data leakage prevention (DLP) in the new era of borderless enterprises.
