With these goals in mind we provide complete Web Security. Our spyware filters and site blocking techniques utilize the latest technology in Web defense. This combined with our managed service insures you of complete Web Protection.

We monitor the Internet. Our servers constantly scan web sites looking for malicious files or methods used to download malicious files. We categorize sites and update our master list which also updates your lists. We can either block certain categories of web sites that you designate or we can allow all sites to be viewed and just filter out the malicious attempts to infect your systems.

At times our filtering techniques cause a web site to look different. This is because we are blocking a certain method frequently used by those with malicious intent. When this happens you send us an email or call us on the phone and we'll scan the web site, just to be sure it's safe, then add it to our whitelist which in turn, updates your whitelist. Then you'll see the web site without any filters.

The cyber-criminals, those with malicious intent, are constantly changing their tactics. Without someone monitoring, managing and updating your Web defense, you would definitely fall victim to a harmless "looking" web site that will infect your systems just by visiting that page.

We watch the Internet so you can watch your business.

We block everything that can harm your systems. That's all we do.

Cyber crooks stake out online gamblers
It's not that you need to watch over their shoulders. You need to protect them and your business from anything that could harm you! What if they receive an email that lures them to click on a link that takes them to a gambling site. Might they be tempted? If you block that web site, you no longer have to worry about that situation. If you also block what types of files can be downloaded, you add another layer of protection against cyber threats.

Do you know whether or not any of your employees use P2P software on your PCs? You could walk around and check. But what prevents them from downloading it and installing it tomorrow? Or next week?
