Overview:

Simplify management, reduce operating costs. Simplify management, reduce operating costs. Blue Coat Management Center unifies management and reporting across Blue Coat products, under a single operating environment and single pane of glass. Powerful central policy tools allow you to deploy effective web access security and governance across your entire organization. Management Center simplifies, by providing inventory and health monitoring for the spectrum of our ProxySG, SSL Visibility Appliance, Content Analysis System, Malware Analysis Appliance, and PacketShaper products.

Currently, Management Center is most powerful for ProxySG, adding object-level RBAC, scripting, and job scheduling. It also integrates with Reporter, for performance reporting that helps you see volume of malware blocks, understand risky users, and prioritize investigations and remediation—enabling you to operate a more effective advanced threat defense.

Management Center delivers on the vision of unified management and reporting on security threats in the cloud.

It brings together all of the various technologies, hardware platforms, and operating systems used by Blue Coat solutions under a single architecture, and it integrates configuration, policy, monitoring, and reporting across Blue Coat applications, providing an unprecedented level of visibility and control.

Management Center also connects your security configuration to Blue Coat’s Global Intelligence Network, which integrates information from our customers, products, and Blue Coat Labs to block 99.9%+ of known and emerging threats.

With Management Center you can:

  • Identify and manage the risks of cloud applications, users and websites for a more effective threat defense
  • Reduce administration costs while maintaining the high availability delivered by Blue Coat products
  • Standardize and assure governance of web security policy
  • Reduce or eliminate shadow IT by providing effective centralized web and network security

Deploy

Deploy Management Center as an appliance or virtual appliance to seamlessly integrate and meet the needs of your environment. Centrally manage up to 500 ProxySG appliances, and organize your proxy deployments by purpose, location, department and more.

Specify Roles and Management Tasks

With object-level access control, you can define users, user groups, devices and device groups to simplify operations. You have the flexibility to create roles at a very granular, object-level, and apply those roles to individual users or groups. User Groups with the same permissions can access, manage and report on devices within their management area and avoid overlapping duties.

Automate Operations

With scripts and job scheduling, you can use Management Center to automate repetitive tasks, including version control and version comparisons. Scripts can be imported from a device and distributed across your device population; you can also reuse key logic across your devices to maximize its utility and minimize the potential for error.

Report on Device Performance

From Management Center, you can leverage Blue Coat Reporter to collect and analyze logs from all the devices in your Blue Coat deployment. This will enable you to access and customize templates to simplify reporting, such as the amount of malware that has been blocked, top threat categories, risky users and other key metrics. You can also create custom dashboards and reports, with widget-based modules, to suit your needs.

Maintain a High Availability Environment

For a high availability proxy environment, you can configure device backups and storage to an external server, using FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, or SCP. You can monitor hardware diagnostics information, including system metrics, storage usage, temperature, voltage, and RPM, to identify and deal with potential issues before they become critical. In the event of a problem, you can click to run hardware diagnostics, power off the appliance and restore factory defaults to resume normal operations and ensure optimal reliability.
