3rd party filters for ISA Server 2004 : Collective Software WebDirect

  • Article

Collective Software WebDirect (https://www.collectivesoftware.com/Products/)

WebDirect enables Microsoft® ISA Server 2004 to issue HTTP and HTTPS redirects . With WebDirect you can write ISA Server 2004 web publishing rules that redirect browsers to some other internal address, or anywhere on the internet.

One popular use of WebDirect is to automatically correct all requests for a particular server from HTTP to HTTPS. This way your remote users don't have to remember to type 'https://' and your connections remain secure. This type of usability enhancement is important in many publishing scenarios, including Sharepoint deployment.

WebDirect works hand-in-hand with the built-in ISA Server 2004 web publishing features. If you already know how to configure ISA Server 2004 rules then you're just one step away from HTTP redirects. WebDirect adds a tab to the web publishing properties that allows you to specify where the rule should redirect, what protocol to use, and how to treat the incoming URL path.

WebDirect is designed to work with both ISA Server 2004 2004 Standard and Enterprise Editions. For installation information on Enterprise, see the Getting Started guide below.

LinkMinder is an HTTP Filter for Microsoft® ISA Server 2004 that watches the HTML content published through the ISA Server 204 and automatically detects externally-facing third-party links. Choose from several popular approaches to link management, such as annotating external links with a special icon or displaying a pop-up warning message before a user navigates through the link.
