Network Deployment
Mi5 offers the most flexible deployment options, allowing you to block and/or monitor from a port span/tap, inline as a transparent bridge and/or via standard ICAP or UFP protocols.
Port Span/Tap
Unlike other solutions, Mi5 Webgate appliances can block (and monitor) from a port/span tap, offering a zero latency solution with the lowest network risk.
Inline
Mi5 provides hardware bypass on all models, so if anything happens while the appliance is inline, the network connection fail open and network traffic passes.
ICAP and UFP
Mi5 supports industry standard ICAP and UFP protocols, providing another option to integrate with your existing proxy and firewall infrastructure.
