Monitor for Safety - Internet safety experts advocate monitoring children’s online activity and educating them on safe, responsible use as a more constructive approach than restricting Internet access.
- Disconnecting children from the Internet will put them at great disadvantage, both academically and socially. The Internet is recognized to be a very valuable learning tool for kids, and is a core aspect of our culture.
- Filtering provides a false sense of security. Filters do not effectively address the biggest online threats of online chat, instant messaging, and e-mail activity. Keeping the filtering database updated with all the new websites added daily is not practical. Their censorship may not be aligned with your values. Children find ways around the filters and then you are blind to their activity.
Maintain Trust and Privacy - The flexibility in monitoring levels allows the parent to establish the mix of monitoring and privacy they are most comfortable with, an approach that fosters trust.
Easy-to-Use - Family Cyber Alert is very easy to use and adjust at any time, and provides reports that are easy to access and read. Installation is quick using the automated installation wizard.
