I'm not sure about an Open-source solution, but SurfControl (www.surfcontrol.com) is a great alternative product. We have done numerous Corporate installations of it, including some icap integrations with squid - although there is still continual development for this support. Ali -----Original Message----- From: Mark Maxey [mailto:mmaxey@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, May 27, 2005 4:19 PM To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [squid-users] Content Filtering Solutions I work in the security assessment field and currently utilize Websense for content monitoring. My license for websense will be up in a month and would like to replace it with an open source solution. Are there any open source solutions that will allow me to use a spanned (mirrored) port on a switch to monitor traffic, specifically web traffic and match that traffic against a blacklist, such as urlblacklist.com's list. I just want to monitor the traffic and be able to provide a report based on what users within an organization are looking at by passively sniffic the traffic on the spanned port. I know this isn't directly related to squid, but I would like to then recommend squid/dansguardian to be used for content filtering in some cases.
