Internet Content Filtering Solutions
Having access to the Internet is a crucial part of nearly every business today. If your business relies upon your interaction with the web, it’s crucial to keep your employees on track while working on it.
Imposing web content filtering protocols can go a long way in making your network both fast and secure – equally important for small businesses as it is for large enterprises.
Filtering also creates a strong and safe environment for your employees by avoiding deliberate or accidental access to undesirable web content.
Network Bandwidth Efficiency
Reducing employees' personal Internet usage helps ensure faster connections throughout your company for actual work-related usage. You can try to impress upon your employees the importance of maintaining your available bandwidth for business needs, but it may be more practical, and necessary, to set limits on some sites, particularly streaming services, such as Youtube, Spotify and others that require more significant bandwidth.
Eliminate Unwanted Content
Content filtering and application blocking effectively enforce your pre-existing policy and gives you added security and protection, both against liability and malicious attacks, at the same time. You can specify which websites are to be blocked, as well as the ability to block by predefined categories and any combination of categories.

If your business has employees who access the Internet, you probably have a “no Internet for personal use” rule or a Technology Policy in place. But you may still be concerned about security issues, productivity, and liability issues.
Particularly if you offer an environment for children, such as a school, camp, or church, you need a way to enforce these guidelines.
The problem is compounded by the fact that even if everyone followed the policy completely, threats would still exist from phishing attempts and dangerous poison links contained in websites and emails that look legitimate but aren’t.
How can you solve this dilemma? Internet content filtering and DNS filtering can be used as a successful, powerful solution.
