File Size: 241 MB

Skyhigh Security Client Proxy software helps protect your endpoint users from security threats that arise when they access the web from inside or outside your network.
Web Protection hybrid solution
Client Proxy is an essential component of the Skyhigh Security Web Protection hybrid solution. This solution allows you to integrate the network-based and cloud-based security functions provided by Skyhigh Security Web Gateway and Skyhigh Security Web Security Gateway Service (Skyhigh Security WSGS), respectively.
The Client Proxy software allows or redirects web traffic depending on the location of the endpoint
Endpoints located inside the network or connected by VPN - Traffic is allowed to continue to a Web Gateway appliance installed on the network for filtering.
Endpoints located outside the network - Traffic is redirected to SWG for filtering.
Integration with Endpoint Security
When deploying Client Proxy with Skyhigh Security Endpoint Security on the endpoints, you install and manage each product separately using Skyhigh SecurityePolicy Orchestrator® (Skyhigh Security ePO™) , Trellix ePO Cloud, or Trellix ePO.
Client Proxy administrators - Configure policies and run tasks as usual.
Endpoint Security administrators - Have the option of configuring Skyhigh Security Endpoint Security Web Control so that it is disabled while Client Proxy is installed and actively redirecting web traffic.
On endpoints running Windows, you can view whether Client Proxy is installed and running on the endpoint and actively redirecting traffic by opening the About McAfee Client Proxy window from the Start menu.
Key Features
Client Proxy allows or redirects web requests from users based on policies that you configure.
Traffic redirection - The software redirects web traffic to proxy servers for filtering according to the settings in the Client Proxy policy.
Location awareness - Location-awareness settings allow one policy to cover users working inside the network, outside the network, or connected to the network by VPN.
Centralized management - The software is managed with Trellix ePO, Trellix ePO Cloud, or Trellix ePO.
Browser independence - Proxy server settings are configured in Client Proxy instead of in the browsers running on the endpoints.
Transparent authentication - Client Proxy authenticates users without prompting for credentials and passes group membership and other information in metadata that it adds to HTTP/HTTPS requests.
Tamper resistance - Users are not allowed to remove Client Proxy software from the endpoint without requesting and receiving a temporary release code from an administrator.
Secure Channel - The software establishes a secure communication channel between Client Proxy and Skyhigh Security WSGS for all HTTP/HTTPS requests. This is applicable only for cloud proxies.
