The Solution
iWay Patrol provides the best answer to the whole range of concerns about both access and censorship.
iWayPatrol provides filtering for both Web sites and News groups.
iWayPatrol provides filtered web access for the range of Internet browsers and workstation hardware.
The iWayPatrol filter tool is compatible with existing proxies and local network solutions. A proxy is provided as part of the installation if none exists.
As a proxy system iWayPatrol operates and is enforced at the system level. There is no software or data maintained at the individual workstations.
The iWayPatrol filter tool will not interfere with business applications including secure transfers.
The use of the proxy provides built in caching which more than compensates for the time cost of the filtering process.
local control permits school administration to add and delete individual sites from blocking lists.
local control permits school administration to add and delete filter categories i.e. Games. (For more information on categories.)
local control permits school administration to adjust content pattern lists.
local control permits school administration to adjust RSACi and SafeSurf self labeling codes blocking values.
iWayPatrol allows customized blocking. One alternative is the option of restricting Internet access to only selected sites.
To keep up with the dynamic changes in the internet, the Web site blocking list and the NetNews access list are updated by iTECH staff, via the Internet, on a weekly basis.
