Which of the following best describes the primary function of a web filter within a security framework?
Counting the amount of data downloaded by each user
Increasing the speed of the user's internet connection
Blocking or allowing access to websites based on security policies
Encrypting data between the user's web browser and the internet
A web filter screens outgoing requests to the internet to ensure that users do not access websites that contain malware or violate an organization's internet use policies. It may block specific sites or content categories depending on the settings established by the network administrator. The other options, while related to web usage, do not accurately define the use of web filtering in a security context.
