Safety from inappropriate content

Content on the internet may be categorized as ‘inappropriate’ based on a number of factors. The age of the user and family morals and values could influence the type of content you want your child to see. Therefore it is important to be able to filter and monitor your child’s internet surfing. For this, it is recommended to use a web usage monitoring software such as Microsoft’s Family Safety, which helps you to monitor the activities of your children online and to stop them from accessing content that is inappropriate for them. Software of this type allow you to categorize web content effectively, therefore all you will have to do is define the categories of content you don’t want your child to see, and their user accounts will be automatically blocked from many sites with content belonging to those categories. This type of safety applications also allow you to control your child’s Internet Messaging contacts, thereby monitoring who he or she communicates with online.

It is important to always take measures to browse the internet safely to ensure the safety of both your family and your computer system.
