The Wavecrest Team

At Wavecrest Computing, we are committed to continually improving our products to keep pace with the ever-evolving digital landscape. Today, we are excited to announce a significant enhancement to our Cyfin and CyBlock products – the introduction of a new category: Artificial Intelligence.

What is the Artificial Intelligence Category?

As AI technologies become increasingly integral to various aspects of business and daily life, we recognized the need to provide our users with more precise and relevant categorization. Our new Artificial Intelligence category encompasses websites that employ AI technologies such as machine learning and deep learning to deliver human-like services.

This category includes platforms offering:

• Chatbots: Interactive AI-driven customer service tools.
• Productivity Tools: Applications designed to streamline workflow and boost efficiency using AI.
• Summarizers: Services that condense information into digestible summaries.
• Transcription Services: Tools that convert audio or video content into written text.
• No-Code Solutions: Platforms enabling users to build applications without programming knowledge, powered by AI.
• Multimedia Editing: Advanced AI-driven tools for editing images, videos, and audio.

Why This Update Matters

AI technologies are not just a trend; they are reshaping industries and transforming how we interact with digital content. By introducing this category, we aim to:

• Enhance Visibility: Provide detailed insights into how and when AI technologies are being utilized within your organization.
• Improve Management: Help IT administrators and management teams better understand and control the use of AI-based tools and services.
• Stay Current: Ensure that our product offerings are aligned with the latest technological advancements, offering you the most up-to-date solutions.

How It Works

The Artificial Intelligence category is meticulously designed to target sites that are actively hosting AI functionalities, rather than those merely providing information about AI. This distinction is crucial for organizations looking to manage and monitor the practical use of AI tools in their operations.

By leveraging our advanced categorization technology, Cyfin and CyBlock can now identify and report on AI-driven activities more accurately, providing you with a clear view of how AI technologies are impacting your network.

Continuous Improvement

This update is part of our ongoing commitment to enhance our products and provide our customers with the best possible tools for managing and understanding their web traffic. We are dedicated to adapting to the dynamic digital environment and ensuring that our solutions remain relevant and effective.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to innovate and expand our product capabilities. If you have any questions or need assistance with the new Artificial Intelligence category, our U.S.-based expert technical support team is always here to help.

Wavecrest is excited to announce the launch of Cyfin and CyBlock Version 966, marking a significant advancement in our nearly three-decade journey of innovation. This release is not just an update; it’s a transformational shift in how organizations understand and manage employee web usage.

Decoding Human Action from Data: Since our inception, our core objective has been to decode human action from raw firewall connection logs. We pioneered the focus on providing a comprehensive picture of employee web usage, going beyond the narrow lens of security and legal liability sites. Over the years, our relentless refinements have set the industry benchmark for complete web usage analysis, making our reports the preferred choice for HR and management teams.

Introducing Session Metrics: With Version 966, we are proud to introduce our evolved smart algorithm that now generates ‘session metrics’. These metrics represent a breakthrough in monitoring and analyzing web usage. A session encapsulates a series of interactions an employee has with a website or online application within a set timeframe, beginning with the initial webpage visit and concluding after a period of inactivity or logout.

Why This Matters: This advancement simplifies how IT, HR, and management teams interpret web usage data. Understanding how employees utilize the internet is crucial for identifying potential security threats, legal liabilities, and shaping a robust compliance policy. This policy is vital for enhancing productivity while simultaneously mitigating security risks.

Commitment to Excellence: At Wavecrest, our commitment to excellence and innovation remains unwavering. Cyfin and CyBlock Version 966 is a testament to this commitment, offering unparalleled insights into employee web usage.
