Websense® TRITON™ has been named winner of the Best Content Security Award at the SC Magazine Awards Europe. The judging panel chose Websense TRITON as the best content security solution for its ability to enable businesses to extend the protection it offers to remote offices and mobile workers.  This is due to the integration between the cloud-based and on-premise platforms through Websense TruHybrid deployment for unified management of threats. It also utilizes Websense TruWeb DLP and TruEmail DLP capabilities to cover data loss from the web and through email.

This news comes hot on the heels of another Content Security accolade: earlier this year Websense was named the winner of the Best Web Content Management Product in the U.S. Reader Trust category of the 2011 SC Magazine Awards.

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.
