CyberPatrol Online Protection contains six applications; Web Filtering, Time Management, Safe Search, Bully Alert, Predator Alert, and Custom Alert. Web Filtering, Time Management and Custom Alert offer controls and settings that can be set and managed by the Safety Center Manager. The remaining three are either turned on or off.
The alert packages (Predator, Bully, and Custom) monitor popular chat programs and social networks looking for potentially harmful activity. You select the type of alerts that you want to use.
-
Predators - Compares chat with words and phrases commonly used by online sexual predators.
-
Bullying - Compares chat with words and phrases commonly used by cyber bullies.
-
Custom - Monitors any name, phone number, address or words that you choose. If any custom entries show up in chats you are alerted.
In addition, some chat programs have the ability to send and receive encrypted (scrambled) messages. This can be an indication that something bad is being sent or received. Therefore, when the Safety Center detects an encrypted message, it immediately sends an alert.
