Web Filtering
Restricting internet access is a core component of many organization’s productivity and security toolkit. Unfortunately, while Hubstaff has employee monitoring capabilities, it lacks any sort of internet control features to proactively prevent access to resources.
CurrentWare’s web filtering and internet security tools help businesses maintain a secure and productive online environment. With customizable filters, you can block access to inappropriate or non-work-related websites, reducing distractions and safeguarding sensitive data.
By offering both detailed reports on web activity and the ability to block websites, CurrentWare gives you the capabilities needed to ensure compliance, improve productivity, and minimize risks associated with internet usage in the workplace.

Data Loss Prevention
Protecting sensitive data is a top priority for businesses, making data loss prevention (DLP) solutions essential for safeguarding against data breaches and insider threats.
Hubstaff’s focus on activity monitoring has left a DLP blind spot with the exclusion of core features such as USB restriction.
CurrentWare’s DLP tools help safeguard sensitive information from theft and leaks. With features like device control, file transfer monitoring, and real-time alerts, you can prevent data breaches and ensure compliance with industry regulations. By restricting the transfer of sensitive data via USB drives, external storage, or cloud services, CurrentWare minimizes the risk of data theft.
