Using Remote Filtering; Enabling Remote Filtering - EdgeWave iPrism Web Security Administration Manual

iPrism
• Unlike other remote Web filters, iPrism helps conserve network bandwidth. Because iPrism
Remote Filtering doesn't require the use of a DMZ deployment, there is no need for additional
hardware. Once mobile laptop and/or remote users are provisioned from the iPrism, there is no
need to connect to the iPrism directly, eliminating the need to use your VPN. The EdgeWave
Data Center functions as an intermediary for the iPrism and the remote client.
• In reports, the remote filtering system attempts to adjust the time of events on remote clients to
the local time zone of the iPrism. This is so that remote events can be viewed side-by-side with
local events as they occurred.
