PureSight Parental Control Software
PureSight provides online content child protection to make sure children don’t access inappropriate content. The PureSight application makes your high speed Internet experience safe and enjoyable! It is the only parental control filtering solution which relies on multilayer dynamic content filtering to categorize web sites, and does not rely exclusively on URL lists or databases.
The software allows users to:
- Restrict and manage access to Internet web sites based on filters (such as Adult, Drug, and Weapon) and user defined lists.
- Create up to 10 user profiles, each with its own password protection login and its own filtering profile.
- Define different filtering policies for each profile.
- Restrict and manage access to Internet web sites based on a time schedule. A new Time Management functionality allows limiting the time each user profile can spend on the Internet on a daily basis. A specific quota is set for each user profile, once the quota is exceeded Internet usage is disabled.
- Obtain clear reports regarding which user tried to access which pages, etc.
- Use personalized lists of sites to allow or to block, which can be added manually or can be imported from a file.
