The same reliable Internet filtering technology that home users have utilized to protect their families is now available in a professional appliance. ContentWatch, the creators of the award winning software NetNanny, has introduced the ContentProtect Security Appliance. ContentProtect Security Appliance comes in three different models protecting 200, 1000 or 5000+ users. This is the best solution to create an effective barrier between your organization and content you deem inappropriate and dangerous on the web.

The new ContentProtect Security Appliance now offers state-of-the-art anti-virus and anti–spyware software in addition to content filtering. One box—one solution—complete protection. The ContentProtect Security Appliance isn't a software like the other solutions in the comparative review, but is certainly worthy of a "TopTenREVIEWS Excellence Award" for superior hardware performance. 

Note: ContentWatch still offers ContentProtect Professional as a centrally managed software version installed on individual workstations. ContentProtect Professional is ideal for small businesses with 25 workstations or less.   ContentProtect Professional offers the same web filtering, but does not include anti-virus or anti-spyware functions. Buy ContentProtect Professional.

Feature Set:

After installing the web security solution, as an administrator, you can organize the users into groups and create customized polices that are company-wide, group-based and per individual. For example, you could allow full Internet rights to one group in the company while allowing another group access to only specified websites.  

A unique feature ContentWatch incorporates in their software allows users to login to any computer in an organization’s network. The user’s policies are then applied to that computer.

Furthermore, ContentProtect comes with a typical, preset policy, which would allow you to install the hardware and apply immediate protection without complex configuring.

In addition to web filtering, there are time management features. The administrator can allow users to access the Internet certain times of the day or chosen days of the week. Perhaps the organization wants to limit Internet use to lunch hours; this is possible with ContentProtect. The time management feature is also customizable to the entire company, groups and per individual.

ContentWatch incorporates employees’ Internet activity, time management features and anti-virus/anti-spyware protection into easy-to-read, web-based reports. This means the administrator can access detailed information on their employees’ online activities whenever and wherever he or she wants. Or, receive notifications via email when an employee attempts to violate the Internet policy or an Internet threat presents itself.

The administrator can also configure and adjust filter policies from the web-based console from any computer with an Internet connection.

New to the ContentProtect Security Appliance is anti-virus and anti-spyware software. Now there is no need to install and additional appliance or install anti-virus/anti-spyware software on individual workstations. You can protect your entire organization from all Internet threats through one device.

If a computer within the networks is threatened by spyware or a virus, the administrator will immediately receive an email and the spyware can be removed with a click of a button.
