With the rise in popularity of social networking and blogging sites, together with the traditional host of other inappropriate temptations on the web, it's never been more important to implement an effective internet filtering solution for your company.  

Any Netbox can be upgraded seamlessly to provide internet filtering within the existing appliance, and can be managed from within the easy-to-use user interface. Web filtering further enhances the comprehensive reporting and monitoring tools that are a part of the Netbox solution, providing 53 web site categories to allow complete control over web browsing use. Access to sports, news, entertainment/videos, anonymous proxy sites and more can be prevented, or allowed only at certain times of the day.

Many organisations today are looking for a way to implement their existing email and internet policies in such a way that they confidently know that staff are not abusing their access to the company's internet services and IT systems. Web filtering can be discreet and valuable - policies can be created for specific groups, time of day and categories of sites. Reports will also show any attempts to access blocked sites for further action where necessary. All reports offer full drill down capability to find out more about who may have accessed certain sites. These reports can show historic as well as real time views. They can even be accessed remotely.

Web filtering can be an effective solution to network monitoring as well as increase productivity - many customers are reporting massive productivity benefits from this solution, and by enabling policies that are flexible and not draconian, keeping staff happy.

In a 100 person company, simply saving 30 minutes a day in lost productivity adds an effective extra six people to the workforce, delivering a fast return on investment.
