Untangle Web Content Control

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 Content Control application—without the hassles of outsourcing it. Whether you want to use our blocklists or set your own policies for hosts, domains and files types, you can block access to inappropriate sites.

Web Content Control Technical Specifications:

Web Content Control blocks user access to specific Internet websites. The application leverages a commercial blacklist service, URLBlacklist.com, which organizes websites by 50+ categories or subjects. These categories include pornography, gambling, and job search, for example. Web Content Control enables you to choose among these categories to define web content control policies in your workplace. Also, Web Content Control uses custom URL blacklists for hosts, domains, and file types to block additional content.

If Web Content Control blocks web content that your company deems useful, you can use pass lists to override Web Content Control's blacklist.
