AI-powered data loss prevention (DLP) that operates on the endpoint.
What does fly direct mean? It’s our way of saying we’ve completely reconstructed the outdated 20-year-old architecture that legacy SWGs are stuck running on. It’s time for something new. By moving policy enforcement from the cloud to on-device, we’re flying direct between your device and internet access with all security checks happening locally — rather than at a stopover. You’ll no longer be affected by data center outages, all decryption will be securely on-device where no threat actors can see it, and you’ll experience 4x performance while running on HTTP/2.
This article explains why traditional cloud-proxy SSE solutions fail in restricted regions like China, highlighting how on-device inspection provides a robust alternative. This is crucial for MSPs managing security for clients with global operations or specific geographical compliance needs.
