The Internet is synonymous with search engines today. Children most often encounter inappropriate content by accident through search. Mobicip enforces safe search on all popular search engines. This feature cannot be disabled even by changing the search engine preferences.
New websites are created every day. Mobicip categorizes every accessed website against a database to determine appropriateness. Database updates are pushed out constantly behind the scenes to stay ahead of threats.
The Family Online Safety Institute publishes ICRA ratings - equivalent to movie ratings like PG, PG-13 etc. for Internet content. Mobicip filters based on this rating and its suitability for the filtering level chosen.
In the rare instance that inappropriate content escapes the Safe Search and Category filters, Mobicip's intelligent real-time content filtering engine steps in to protect young users. Advanced heuristic mathematical algorithms dynamically analyze and rate every single website, blog, and page as it is accessed.
Beyond filtering content, Mobicip encrypts all Internet traffic for over-the-air protection at unsecured WiFi hotspots. In addition, hotspots that require an agreement are supported seamlessly.
For each filter in the Intelligent Real-time Content Filtering engine described above, Mobicip has identified filtering policies primarily based on benchmarks used by school IT directors. While we believe it could be quite restrictive relative to what parents might want to allow, we are constantly tweaking our filtering policy based on feedback from our users. If you have any suggestions or recommendations in this regard, please get in touch with us on our helpdesk. NOTE: If you change your filtering level, please allow up to 60 mins for the change to be propagated to all our servers.
