Internet filters


Internet filters are software tools that can help monitor web content viewed on a particular computer or network. In the case of family safety settings, Internet filters can also help parents manage who kids can communicate with or how long kids can use the computer. Furthermore, they can block specific websites and raise the internet security levels. i believe it to be a great tool to provide some degree of control over what children are expose to these days. Nonetheless, many kids are computer savvy and know how to change the basic filter settings. 





Internet filters are also greatly used in the workforce. During "down time" in the office, employees tend to surf the web for contents which are not work related. Nowadays with the blowout of social media such as facebook and tweeter, there is always a good excuse not to do work and search for different distraction on the web. In come internet filters and firewalls blocking all these websites which do not "promote" good work performance.
