ect: Websense vs Baracuda web filter=0A=0AOur Websense license needs to ren=
ew by the middle of this month. I have been advised to switch to a Baracuda=
web filter solution. The rationale is that it is both a hardware and softw=
are solution that will enhance our network performance. Other advice sugges=
ts moving the Websense to it's own server so it can function more efficient=
ly. It currently shares an server with both the antivirus server and second=
ary DNS server.=0A=0AThe=A0 Baracuda solution is 3x the cost of the Websens=
