Difference between web gateway & Web security

Hi,

 

Please help me understand the difference between web gateway and web security (web security cloud)

 

Thanks in advance!

One is a physical (or virtual) appliance on your premises, the other is a proxy service you purchase and point your client's web browsers to.

Web security refers to the protective measures and protocols that organizations adopt to protect the organization from, cybercriminals and threats that use the web channel. Businesses usually entrust this kind of IT solution to it experts to run their process to ensure smooth workflow. This is vital in today's generation since crimes oftentimes happen online.
