children to have a certain amount of freedom. ContentBarrier X5 helps by offering the possibility of

filtering the content you want to protect your children from, or by allowing access only to trusted

sites or specific applications. But ContentBarrier X5 also keeps a full log of your children’s Internet

sessions, so, if you want to give them freedom, you can check up on them afterwards. You can

record screen shots of their computer activity, and even record what they type. You can also check

up on them using ContentBarrier X5’s Web Administration feature, which lets you view detailed

logs of their activity both on the Internet and on their Macs, and block or allow web sites.

Filtering Content in Businesses

While parents may want to protect their children by filtering Internet content, business managers

may wish to do the same thing to protect their bottom line. The Internet gives their employees

access to an endless source of information, but it also gives them plenty of chances to waste time.

How many employees do their shopping on the Internet, play network games, send and receive

personal e-mail or download MP3 files while at work, reducing productivity and using valuable

network bandwidth? ContentBarrier X5 can solve this problem by blocking access to many

different types of sites, content and protocols, and contains specific filters for web sites designed for

business use.

Optimizing Productivity

The Internet can help improve employee productivity, by providing the latest information and

ensuring rapid communication. But this productivity can drop sharply if employees spend their time

playing games on the Net, checking sports scores or managing their investment portfolios. Also,

your employees might be spending your time looking for a new job, consulting on-line job sites and

sending résumés by e-mail. ContentBarrier X5 helps you optimize productivity by blocking the sites

you choose, such as shopping, financial or job sites.

Optimizing Bandwidth

Your network bandwidth is valuable. Not only is it expensive, but when you need to send or receive

large files, you want that bandwidth to be available. If your employees are wasting your bandwidth

by downloading MP3 files, software or movies, you may find your network clogged. ContentBarrier
