Cisco PIX Firewall Edition
Nationally recognized law firm selects Websense and Cisco to manage Internet use
Allen Matkins, a 400-person law firm with five offices in
California, normally concerns itself with protecting the liability of its prestigious client list. But, when it came to the firm's employees accessing the Internet at work, Allen Matkins took a proactive approach to limit its
own legal liability. To ensure that potentially offensive or hurtful material from the Internet is kept out of its working environment, the firm began to look for software solutions that would filter the Internet.
After an
extensive search, Allen Matkins eventually selected Websense Enterprise software, which installed on the firm's Cisco PIX firewall.
"The firm chose Websense Enterprise primarily because it seemed to be the easiest
product to install and administer," said Frank Gillman, director of technology for Allen Matkins. "IT departments are usually understaffed, and this is especially true in the legal industry. It's critical in our
decision process to use systems that are reliable and efficient to maintain, which is why we liked Websense."
After installing Websense, the IT department immediately noticed a drop in attempts to access inappropriate
Web sites, decreasing the legal liability of the firm while increasing employee productivity. By proactively choosing to address the issue with Websense software and educating its employees about the company's policy against
inappropriate Internet access, Allen Matkins kept morale high and ensured that offensive material was kept out of the office.
Allen Matkins is recognized as one of the nation's premiere law firms, with a reputation for
excellence in real estate, land use and environmental issues, litigation, finance, governmental advocacy, tax, bankruptcy, emerging growth and technology, employee benefits, and labor and employment law. With five offices in
California, Allen Matkins has more than 400 employees, including 200 attorneys, all of whom have access to the World Wide Web.
