Issue/Introduction

 

Resolution

Symantec Web Security Service is delivered through a global infrastructure of 10 highly available data centers located across 4 continents. These data centers are load-balanced and housed in secure, well established telecommunications centers located at major Internet exchange points.

All data centers are compliant with best practice standards for security to demonstrate the quality and security of our services. Achieved audit report standards such as SSAE 16 for US data centres and certifications like ISO 27001 for non-US data centres. These certifications show the strength and professionalism of the established Information Security Management System (ISMS) in the cloud service operational process and in our data centers.

If you set up Web Security to route through us using the Client Site Proxy, or directly on port 3128, please make sure to review the rules in the Web Security firewall rules for web browsing help article.
