Furniture Retailer WS Badcock Corp. Protects Essential Information With Websense

SAN DIEGO, CA, Aug 27 (MARKET WIRE) --
As one of the largest privately-owned home furniture retailers in the
United States, WS Badcock Corporation is committed to staying ahead of
the trends both in home furnishings and taking aggressive measures
against today's emerging Internet security threats. To keep their
essential information safe from email threats and protect their data from
accidental or malicious leaks, WS Badcock uses Websense(R) Web and
email security solutions across the organization.

"For retailers like us, protecting our network from attacks and
safeguarding our data against a breach is critical," said Tim Lawton,
network security engineer for WS Badcock. "We chose Websense Email
Security because we are able to set email policies around the data we
want to safeguard like customer information, credit card numbers and
social security numbers. The solution examines every layer of an email,
including zipped file attachments and embedded images, for data deemed
sensitive and if necessary, prevents it from going out."

In business for more than 100 years with more than 1,200 employees and 300
locations throughout the Southeast, longtime Websense Web security
customer, WS Badcock was aware that today's attacks are focused on
secretly stealing information -- no longer the highly visible and public
"bring down the network" attacks. After looking at several email security
solutions the company discovered that most products lack content
protection to prevent outbound data leaks. They selected Websense Email
Security because of its ability not only to stop spam and viruses but
also to prevent confidential information from leaving the organization
through email.

"Stopping data loss through email is a vital component of a data-centric
security strategy," said Leo Cole, vice president of marketing, Websense.
"We're committed to helping our customers like WS Badcock protect what
matters most: their employees and their essential information."

Websense Email Security software provides comprehensive content filtering
for continuous protection from inbound and outbound email threats
including spam, viruses, blended threats, data loss and regulatory
violations. All Websense solutions including Websense Email Security are
powered by the Web sense ThreatSeeker(TM) Network, which is designed to
continuously monitor the Internet for changes and emerging threats. The
resulting intelligence is immediately incorporated into the company's Web
security, email security and data loss prevention solutions. As a result,
Websense is able to adapt to the rapidly changing Internet at speeds not
possible by traditional security solutions.
