Anonymous proxies

Description: Web-based anonymous proxy services provide a method to bypass
Web filters. Administrators can block the Web-Based Proxies/Anonymizer library
Category to keep employees away from sites that offer free anonymous proxy
services. As a second layer of protection, the R3000 also offers Proxy Pattern
Blocking.
Proxy Pattern Blocking prevents users from bypassing the filter if they try to use
(unencrypted) Web and client-based proxies. Therefore, if the site is not catego-
rized as Web-Based/Anonymous Proxies, the R3000 will still be able to block
access to the site based on signature files in the 8e6 Database.
