The Cisco Secure Web Appliance (SWA) intercepts and monitors internet traffic and applies policies to help keep your internal network secure from malware, sensitive data loss, productivity loss, and other internet-based threats. It acts as a proxy server, intercepting web requests from users and scanning the requested web content for potential threats such as malware, viruses, and phishing attempts. Cisco SWA uses various security technologies such as URL filtering, antivirus scanning, reputation-based filtering, and advanced malware protection to ensure the security of web traffic.
