Proxy Servers

Proxy servers can serve as a security measure for your organization, as well as, improve the speed with which you receive information from external networks. With a proxy server, you never actually connect to an outside network; rather, the proxy makes the connection and relays allowable content back to the internal network. Thus, a proxy server can act as a content filter or firewall protecting users from receiving information that is either not allowed or could cause harm to the system.

A proxy server speeds up access to the internet by caching (or archiving) pages that have been previously requested. The archives are more easily accessible than going back to the original web server destination. Proxy servers speed up file requests, reduce bandwidth, and ease the load on servers by only requesting updated or new materials that are not already stored in the cache.
