Frequently asked questions
Service filtering is a tool that controls access to specific online services or applications within a business network. It works by recognizing and selectively allowing or blocking certain services, like streaming or file-sharing apps, based on customized business policies, helping maintain productivity and security.
Service filtering helps businesses ensure that only relevant, approved online services are accessible during work hours. This control prevents unnecessary use of bandwidth, reduces distractions, and protects the network from potentially harmful applications, enhancing both productivity and security.
