New
collaboration and Web 2.0 applications are being adopted rapidly
by enterprise users, often without the consent or knowledge of
IT departments. Even with conventional control mechanisms such
as firewalls, IPS, and URL filtering solutions in place, technically
savvy users can often circumvent IT security through the use of
proxies, encryption, or other evasive maneuvers. As this ongoing
cat-and-mouse game plays out between IT and end users, the typical
outcome is that neither security nor business needs are adequately
addressed.

their policies and procedures for controlling their usage.
