It blocks malicious domain lookups, phishing sites, and malware before connections get established. You can enforce unified security policies across your hybrid workforce, track outgoing web traffic, and inspect downloads for viruses. The service inspects file uploads to prevent data leaks and restricts risky cloud applications.
