Overview

Product Information on F5 Secure Web Gateway Services

Updated 24th November 2025

What is F5 Secure Web Gateway Services?

F5 Secure Web Gateway Services is an add-on to BIG-IP SSL Orchestrator that delivers granular, policy-driven control over outbound web traffic. It uses real-time URL categorization to block malware, risky domains, and inappropriate content while enforcing user- and group-based access rules. By leveraging SSL Orchestrator’s decryption, it provides full visibility into encrypted traffic and routes it through the appropriate inspection services. The add-on also restricts unsanctioned app usage, enforces safe-search policies, and offers detailed reporting on web activity and threats. Deployable on hardware, virtual, or cloud editions of BIG-IP, it helps organizations strengthen compliance, reduce risk, and simplify consistent web access governance across all users.
