ContentProtect™ Professional Internet Filtering For Business

Benefits to IT Departments

As a network administrator you have lots of issues to deal with. You need your web filtering solution to help make your job easier... not more difficult. Here is how ContentProtect Professional makes content filtering of your network trouble free:

Increase Productivity, Decrease Liability
Filter or block any unwanted content that either creates a liability for your organization (pornography, hate, etc.) or hurts productivity (shopping, games, entertainment, etc.).

Dynamic Content Filtering
List-based filters must constantly be updated to ensure protection. ContentProtect's Dynamic Contextual based filtering engine analyzes content on the fly-no need to rely on static URL lists. Create custom URL lists for your employees.

Performance and Compatibility
ContentProtect Professional uses the latest algorithms to optimize the users Internet browsing experience. It avoids compatibility issues with other third party applications (i.e. firewalls, spyware prevention tools, antivirus tools).

Fully Customizable & Controllable
ContentProtect Professional is highly customizable permitting Administrators to create organization, group, or individual filtering settings for employees, rather than forcing them into a "one size fits all" scenario like some products do. ContentProtect Professional can be used as configured right "out of the box" or can be customized for each employee. ContentProtect Professional includes a "White/Black List" allowing administrators to allow common websites or block unwanted websites.

Rapid Deployment Tools
ContentProtect Professional can be easily 'pushed' to computer workstations using Windows 2000 or Windows XP Active Directory or other push technologies. This makes network wide deployment fast and easy.

LDAP Import Utility
Import users easily from your LDAP Directory, making installation and the populating of the user list easier and faster than you might expect.

Remote Management
The Remote Management dashboard allows Administrators to view reports, make changes to user's Internet policies, and permit or terminate Internet access, all from a remote Internet connection. Administrator can also receive email notifications when employees may be trying to access, override, or in some way violate the user's Internet policy.

Integration With Popular Search Engines
ContentProtect 2.1 leverages "Safe Search", found in popular search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Dogpile, AltaVista, Lycos, AllTheWeb, and MSN. This new feature will increase protection against pornographic images.

Client Based
ContentWatch Professional is installed on a computer workstation or notebook computer. This ensures that whenever/wherever/however the user connects to the Internet, the computer is being filtered. Because ContentWatch products are client-based the filtering actually takes advantage of the client's processing power rather than becoming a potential point of failure as with server-based or appliance solutions. Small appliance and server-based products cannot offer this same benefit.

Easy to Manage/Maintain
Because updates occur automatically, and user Internet policies can be managed remotely, management and maintenance is less expensive and time consuming than server-based solutions, where IT staff must be allocated to manage and maintain them. Maintenance and ongoing administration is a snap.

Reporting
ContentProtect Professional provides the ability for Administrators to view reports anywhere and at any time. Reports are stored in the ContentWatch Data Center (CDC). Having data stored in the CDC permits access to online reports from any Internet connection in the world. Administrators can check on the Internet activity of their employees from work or in a hotel room while traveling. Reporting includes logs of IM traffic, bypass or disable attempts, and more.

Perfect for Mobile or Notebook Computer Users
Because of its client-based architecture, ContentProtect Professional is a perfect fit for mobile or notebook computer users. Regardless of how the user connects to the Internet, filtering is present. Without a client-based solution a user could simply bypass the corporate network by using a wireless connection or simply plugging into an analog line and using a personal dial-up service. This could even happen from the employee's office, making server-based solutions easy to bypass.

Peer-to-Peer Management
ContentProtect allows you to completely block P2P applications including: BitTorrent, Kazaa, eMule/eDonkey, and Gnutella, which are commonly used to download Illegal music, software, objectionable movies, images, etc. Note: P2P applications will not be filtered, but can be completely blocked.

Block Internet Games
ContentProtect gives Administrators the control to increase employee productivity by disabling access to popular Internet Games and other applications.

Budget Friendly
ContentWatch products don't require the expense of additional hardware (servers, gateways, routers, proxy servers, etc.). Simply purchase the software and install on your computers and begin filtering. Not to mention that ContentWatch Professional usually pays for itself dozens of times over in productivity gains and bandwidth savings alone.

Dramatically Increase Bandwidth
When unproductive Internet traffic is blocked, it frees up significant amounts of bandwidth for mission critical applications. That further increases productivity, insures more bandwidth for mission critical functions, and eliminates or delays the need to purchase additional bandwidth.

Multi-Language Support
To increase Internet protection ContentProtect now filters Internet content in multiple languages. Our new interface is also available in Chinese with more language packs available soon.

Automatic Updates
With state-of-the-art technology, ContentWatch updates users with the latest lists, definitions, and technology, as they become available. This process can happen automatically or manually depending on the user preference enabling the customer to have the most current version of the software available.

Benefits to HR Departments, Executives & Business Owners

In your capacity as manager for your business or organization, you have responsibilities to improve the productivity of your employees, and to insure that they are provided a friendly work environment. Along with the fantastic tools and efficiency that the Internet brings, it also brings challenges with which every organization must deal. ContentProtect Professional is the perfect solution that easily and affordably helps you improve employee productivity while helping insure a harassment free work environment. The benefits of ContentProtect Professional:

Reduce Risk
Several cases of Internet and email misuse have resulted in lawsuits costing corporations millions of dollars. Chevron™ Corp., for example, paid $2.2 million in settlement costs to four employees after they successfully claimed they had been sexually harassed by email jokes circulating the company via email (Source IDC). Pornography and other questionable content available on the Internet have the potential to put your organization at risk. ContentProtect Professional provides an easy solution to mitigate this risk by blocking inappropriate content.

Measurable, Quick Return on Investment
ContentProtect Professional not only blocks inappropriate content, you can also block unproductive web use like online shopping sites, game sites, Peer-To-Peer downloading and more. In an environment where as much as 2 and a half hours a day is lost to non-work related Web Surfing, ContentProtect will pay for itself within the first few days of use.

Productivity Gains
When employees no longer have access to unproductive uses of the Internet, they are more productive. The benefits of Internet filtering are incalculable in cost savings and productivity gains.

Value
ContentProtect Professional doesn't require the additional expense of additional hardware (servers, gateways, routers, proxy servers, etc.). Simply purchase the software and install on your computers and begin filtering. You or your IT Department can install ContentProtect Professional across your entire network in less than half an hour.

More Bandwidth for Mission Critical Applications
ContentProtect Professional allows you to block major network bandwidth hogging abuse resulting when employees use the company network to access Peer-to-Peer applications or download streaming content. ContentProtect Professional helps to frees up bandwidth that guarantees faster throughput for your mission critical applications. It may even eliminate or delay the need to purchase additional bandwidth. This is yet another way that ContentProtect Professional pays for itself.

Regulatory Compliance
Corporate concerns with compliance with privacy regulations (e.g., HIPAA, GLBA, and SEC/SOx) continue to fuel the explosive growth of content filtering and messaging security. Additionally, legal liability risks around employees downloading MP3's and full-length DVDs on corporate hard drives are becoming a major concern. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and the Motion Picture Association of America recently warned CEOs of Fortune 1000 companies that their corporations will be held liable for breaking copyright laws if employees use company networks to download, store, or distribute music or movies illegally (Source IDC). ContentProtect Professional provides easy to install and maintain solutions.

Reporting
ContentWatch provides the ability for Administrators and/or Managers to view reports anywhere and at any time. Reports are stored in the ContentWatch Data Center (CDC). Having data stored in the CDC permits access to online reports from any Internet connection in the world. Administrators can check on the Internet activity of their employees from work or even from a hotel room while traveling. Reports include sites visited, attempted sites visited, logs of Instant Messages and email, attempts to remove or circumvent the filter, and more. Managers have actionable data to better manage Human Resources.

The Bottom Line: Content filtering is a wise and prudent decision for any and every School, Library or public network. Learn more about how ContentProtect Professional is the best and most affordable solution for your organization.

Benefits to HR Departments, Executives & Business Owners

ContentWatch, Inc. protects small/medium businesses and organizations by providing tools that help them manage employee Internet access. A recent study conducted by International Data Corporation (IDC) concluded that 30 to 40 percent of Internet use in the workplace is not business related. (Source: IDC, Secure Content Management Report, March 2004).

Furthermore, employers need to protect their computers by controlling what applications can be installed. Oftentimes, employees who install applications that are not approved introduce viruses and malicious code into the workplace. When these problems are introduced they can be costly.

Lastly, you need to protect company trade secrets by providing tools that protect your privacy. Fraudulent Web sites will try to "phish" your company to get valuable information.

ContentProtect Professional Suite addresses these issues with state-of-the-art technology putting you in control of your computer environment.
