We use it for URL filtering to enforce our enterprise Internet use policy. We use it for our current initiatives in artificial intelligence. There's a module in iboss for artificial intelligence we're utilizing. We use it for forensics when our internal affairs investigators need historical information on website access. We use their cloud configuration to send our enterprise-owned devices anywhere in the world, and we've enabled the protections to travel with the end user. We also have some botnet and malware and other protections through that agent, and we are currently evaluating the iboss platform to see if their zero trust framework and legacy VPN solution will work in our environment. We've been fanning out. Iboss started out with us as just a simple URL filter, and it has moved on to be used in several key critical areas of our operation.

We purchased iboss for its SASE and ZTNA features. We're currently utilizing the SASE capabilities and have plans to deploy the ZTNA functionality in the future. We're also using the web browser sandboxing feature for some limited use cases. We currently have approximately 80,000 users on the platform. iboss is primarily a cloud-based solution, but I tend to think of it more as a platform-as-a-service due to its deployment flexibility. In its most basic form, it utilizes distributed points of presence globally, and agents on our devices connect to the nearest one for seamless backend routing. However, for data center needs, they offer physical hardware for on-premises installation, bridging those environments into their network. They have similar solutions for cloud integration as well. So, while fundamentally a cloud service, iboss's adaptability has allowed us to address all our advanced deployment requirements.
