According to research published in 2024 by Internet Matters, 7 in 10 children aged between 9 and 13 say they have been exposed to harmful experiences or content online. In today's fast-paced digital landscape, schools, colleges, and MATs need web filtering solutions that can outpace emerging online threats while meeting statutory guidelines. That’s where real-time, content-aware web filtering makes a difference—blocking harmful content the moment it appears online. In this article, discover how real-time filtering tackles the major digital threats that put today’s educational institutions at risk! 👉 https://hubs.la/Q02X6wXY0 #WebFiltering #RealTimeContentAwareWebFilters #OnlineSafety #DigitalSafeguarding

Filtering alone isn’t enough to keep students safe. While filters block harmful content, they don’t always tell the full story. Relying on filter logs alone means you're unlikely to spot everything students do, say or share on their school devices. Without effective monitoring, you risk missing activity that can (and often does) place individuals and potentially others in harm's way. Smoothwall Monitor takes monitoring a step further by actively alerting you to risks based on students’ online activity, wherever they are, at school, at home or anywhere in between.
