What do you like best about Symantec Secure Web Gateway?

The strength of Symantec Secure Web Gateway is flexibility, since it allows the centralization of perimeter, cloud or hybrid implementations, providing protection to the network and ensuring the secure use of the Internet by end users, this through filter implementation and navigation policies Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Symantec Secure Web Gateway?

As points that I did not like, but more generally, would be the latency, which is sometimes notorious for the end user, since the SWG is the intermediary between the user and the web.

Adding to the false positives, this can make the day-to-day life of the users in the organization a bit difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Symantec Secure Web Gateway solving and how is that benefiting you?

In particular, the benefits of the SWG are the security that they give to the organization about its users and their correct use of the Internet, preventing users from accessing fraudulent sites that could lead to a cybersecurity incident in the company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
