Quick Start Guide

Cyber Sentinel Network
is a new way to filter/monitor/block for undesirable content. Cyber Sentinel Network can drastically reduce your employees and/or students exposure to objectionable material.

Unlike conventional filtering software, Cyber Sentinel Network uses an Advanced Recognition Engine (ARE) in conjunction with a sophisticated content model that produces a very effective solution. Instead of constantly updated lists of Internet addresses governed by software manufacturers, Cyber Sentinel Network monitors text prior to being displayed on your computer screen for incoming traffic and text content displayed on your computer screen for outgoing traffic, allowing for a more objective and reliable protective environment.

Traditional site blockers do not allow access to sites that may contain a small amount of sexually explicit material. The problem here is that many sites contain both appropriate and inappropriate information.  An example is http://www.geocities.com. There is a tremendous amount of good information on the Geocities web site, but there is also an "adults only" section.  If a product entirely blocks a mega site like Geocities, a good resource has been censored and eliminated from access. This is one important reason that SSSI chose a page-by-page review. If a user attempts to access adult material, Cyber Sentinel Network will halt the normal progression into that specific area. This empowers educators and corporate users to take charge of their computers,  yet not limit valuable resources to them.

Unlike competing technology, Cyber Sentinel Network does much more than just monitor pornographic and sexually explicit web sites.  For the educational user, the most notable feature of this technology is Cyber Sentinel's ability to monitor Instant Messaging, chat rooms and e-mail in real-time, providing protection from online predators and pedophiles.  Throughout the many legal cases being prosecuted against on-line sexual predators, it has been determined that their main method of contact with their victims has been through chat rooms, instant messaging and e-mail.

The growth of the Internet has been enormous and continues at record pace. The Internet has already proven itself a valuable business tool, as well as a limitless source of knowledge and information. A business today cannot reach its true potential without it. There is a problem though, what about the explicit, distracting, and otherwise useless material out there? That is where Cyber Sentinel Network comes in.

This product was designed to increase efficiency in the workplace. You can simply allow employees to  view only the web sites that you choose, or filter out pornographic and sexually explicit material.
If you have a user that is abusing Internet privileges, then Cyber Sentinel Network can help. Either way, Cyber Sentinel Network will improve your bottom line.
