The firm markets its products under the brand name SurfControl. The company's products now include a complete set of content protection solutions, including Web security, e-mail and spam filtering, and information leak prevention, tailored to meet the specific requirements of small, medium and enterprise-sized organizations. Over time, Websense plans to enhance SurfControl's on-demand platform to deliver other hosted content protection services, such as information leak prevention services and advanced Web security offerings based on Websense ThreatSeeker(TM) technology.

Websense ThreatSeeker technology scans more than 600 million Web sites per week identifying and categorizing Web-based security threats. SurfControl's on-demand platform, which processes more than 350 million emails per week, gives Websense more visibility into email-based threats such as spam.
