Internet Filtering and Blocking
This is also called Internet Security blocking, Internet Protection, Content Filtering, and probably also under other names.
The purpose of this technology is to prevent unauthorized Internet access by employees, students, and children.
Employers often realize that the Internet benefits mandate providing access to many workers and that they cannot monitor all
use. While most dedicated employees use the employer Internet source responsibly and honorably, a fraction use it for nonbusiness purposes and some engage in Internet activity that can lead to adverse legal
action against the employer. You pay for your Internet service and want it fast enough that the legitimate users are not delayed by a slow connection. If your network is bogged down by "recreational" or
"personal" use which has no business at work, you may be forced into subscribing to a faster, more costly connection which will only promote more waste.
Schools, after school recreational facilities, and similar organizations are entrusted to child care. If you don't limit
access you really do not know what sort of activity can be going on. Would you like to be an unknowing accomplice in a pedophile's activity?
At home, your children access the Internet for numerous reasons. Do you know exactly what they are doing and if they are
protected from being drawn into the uncontrolled, dishonest, unethical sites out there.
In addition to the obvious waste of bandwidth, loss of productivity, and clear risks, many sites download spyware, viruses,
maleware, and other bugs that foul operations and are costly to fix.
