Blocked Content
Advanced content filtering with category-based blocking. Keep students safe from inappropriate and harmful content.
Why You Need This
CIPA compliance requires schools to filter internet content, but basic blocklists are no longer enough. New websites appear constantly, VPNs and proxies try to bypass filters, and sophisticated threats slip through simple keyword blocking. You need intelligent, continuously updated content filtering.
Blocked Content provides enterprise-grade web filtering with over 80 content categories. Block entire categories like adult content, gambling, and weapons with a single click. Create custom rules for specific sites. Our database updates continuously with machine learning to identify new threats and inappropriate content in real-time.
Go beyond simple URL blocking with content analysis that examines page content, images, and context. Block proxy and VPN bypass attempts automatically. Get detailed reports on blocked content attempts so you can identify students who may need additional support or intervention.
