According to an industry study, at least 90 percent of large enterprises and 50 percent of small companies in the United States now monitor and filter their employees’ Internet access.

The primary reasons companies use Internet filtering and monitoring are to block inappropriate content (44%), control productivity (32%) and preserve network bandwidth (23%).

Now you can easily monitor, set and enforce your own web usage policy with our Web Filter application—without the hassles of outsourcing it.

Web Filter Lite Technical Specifications

Web Filter Lite blocks user access to specific Internet websites. The application leverages a community maintained database which categorizes sites into 16 categories. These categories include pornography, gambling, and job search, for example. Web Filter Lite enables you to choose among these categories to define web content control policies in your workplace. Also, Web Filter Lite uses custom URL blocklists for hosts, domains, and file types to block additional content.
