| Description |
|---|
| Allowing traffic to bypass the security checkpoints such as firewalls and intrusion detection systems puts the network infrastructure and critical data at risk. Malicious traffic could enter the network undetected and attack a key network element or the server farm. Hence, it is imperative all encrypted traffic entering the network is decrypted prior to the content checking devices. |
