The biggest threats to your network come from the outside: identity scams, spyware, viruses, and wasted time spent web browsing and chatting. One of the oldest problems, and one of the biggest threats to your business, is still inappropriate content. Accessing pornographic sites is a doorway to other threats, since fringe sites are frequently used to upload malware to your network and are avenues for harassment lawsuits, as well as wasting employee time and network bandwidth. This is why many companies need a reliable broadband Internet access filter and porn filter solution.

There are three challenges when managing porn filters and other broadband Internet access filter solutions for a network:
- Keyword-based porn filters can misidentify porn sites, which tend to be light on text
- Image recognition software isnt a dependable technology for porn filters
- Streaming video, like images, also isnt identified by keyword-based porn filters
iPrism is an effective porn filter because it can restrict content missed by standard broadband Internet access filter solutions: images and streaming video. iPrism offers more than a standard porn filter. Through its industry-leading database, iGuard, iPrism functions as a broadband Internet access filter, controlling vulgar content like porn filters, but also filtering access based on time and the type of site. iGuard is 100% human-reviewed and updated constantly, so that even as new threats emerge, iPrism filtering is still active.
The effectiveness of a broadband Internet access filter / porn filter like iPrism lies in how flexibly is can be configured. The worst failure of a porn filter is under blocking, allowing in objectionable content, but almost as damaging to productivity is over blocking, keeping information away from employees when it should be allowed. iPrism porn filter settings are configured through user profiles, adaptable ways to define what kind of Internet access users have:
- Category-based broadband Internet access filter / porn filter, which identifies individual web pages by the subject matter
- Time ranges for access, so that rules can be loosened during lunch hours or after hours
- Safe searching, which filters search engine results
As a broadband Internet access filter and porn filter, iPrism offers tools, through long-term reporting and a Real-Time Monitor to track current access, which allow administrators to track how the network is being used, such as what kinds of sites are being visited and how long users spend browsing. |
