Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The Blue Coat Reverse Proxy appliances provide a termination point where deep inspection for malware and mission-critical policy is applied to inbound traffic. The Reverse Proxy gives organizations the ability to govern traffic and payloads on a wide variety of parameters, including location, devices, clients, software, protocols, and more. It can be used with either public-facing or internally facing web servers.
