Vispa Internet has launched its new 'Parental Control' software, which is designed for broadband connected families and aimed at helping to keep children safe from unwanted content:
In a recent study conducted by LSE, published April 2005, found that from a sample audience of 2163 children aged between 9 and 17 and their parents, 58% of these had viewed Adult material, 31% had received sexual comments online, 46% of them has given out personal details (such as address, mobile details) and 33% had been bullied online.
The proliferation of indecent images of children being sexually abused has been a concern for many years. Whilst such images have, unfortunately always existed, internet technologies have allowed for a far wider dissemination of this content across the world.
The VPC Solution:
VPC Home Edition offers security and parental control for up to three computers in a broadband-connected home. It monitors and records chat rooms, blocks inappropriate web sites, provides anti-virus protection and logs just what software is being used and is very simple to use.
VPC Home Edition is considered an End Point software solution, which simply means a piece of software that physically resides at the end of a network - in this case, on your home computer at the end of a broadband connection. As the software is actually installed on your computer, it is ideally placed to constantly monitor all of the interaction between an end user with the computers processes & applications.
VPC acts as a guardian on your computer.
