Web Gateway
Web Gateway in the context of Secure Web Gateways (SWGs) refers to a security solution that acts as a barrier between users and the internet, monitoring and controlling web traffic to protect against cyber threats. It inspects incoming and outgoing web requests in real time, enforcing security policies, filtering malicious content, and blocking unauthorized access to harmful websites. A web gateway provides advanced threat protection, malware detection, URL filtering, and data loss prevention to safeguard sensitive information. By securing internet access and ensuring compliance with organizational policies, the web gateway plays a critical role in protecting networks from web-based attacks and vulnerabilities.
