Symantec Web Security Service (WSS) is a line of defense against modern day cyber threats. It provides secure web services, enables enterprises to control access, protects users from threats, and secures their sensitive data.
Easy to use and reliable, with very little maintenance required and zero downtime to date. For the education sector, ease of use is hugely important as IT Managers/Technicians are often "Jack of all trades" with a good, broad general knowledge but perhaps lacking specific expertise in certain aspects. Being provided with easy-to-follow tutorials and instructions has been very useful in setting up and configuring the firewall, especially as my background is more in desktop support.
It is a cloud-based online security service that offers a variety of tools to guard against risks that may be found on the internet, such as malware, phishing, and advanced persistent threats (APTs). We rely extensively on web-based applications and services, and this software's strong protection against web-based attacks has been one of the main purchase reasons.

Obfuscation on the client side user credentials which appears in the developer tools of browser
URL Profiles redundancy during the learning of traffic needs to be fixed

Client Fingerprinting should work as expected when verifying the clients as in rare some scenarios, it creates issues
