Protect your Children and your Network
Our
services protect your children and your network from external threats,
and allow you to restrict access so the children can only see the parts of your
network that you want them to see.
Network security is becoming more complex by the day. If you miss anything out, your children or your network will be exposed. Our services give you peace of mind. We make sure that you’re covered as thoroughly as possible, and we use products and services that update you constantly as new threats emerge. You can be confident that the systems are working as intended, because we’ll set everything up and monitor what’s going on.
For total protection, we’ve chosen to work with Smooth Wall’s School Guardian software. If you already have the other services and just need to stop viruses and other external threats, our ProtectIT service gives you the most effective protection available. If you’re not sure of what you need, please do talk to us. It’s too important to leave to chance.
Keep your children safe
Our services ensure that use of the internet is not putting your children at risk. You can be confident that you’re fulfilling your responsibility to protect the children in your care.
The web is a dangerous place for children. Perfectly innocent searches can lead children to pornography, violence, racial hatred and other material that you just can’t allow them to see.
Parents rightly expect their children to be safe from such websites at schools, and it’s absolutely critical that you provide effective protection. You must also prevent access to instant messaging and chat sites. Not only are these a distraction, they can be a danger to children if adults get them into online conversations.
We all want children to be safe. Our services make sure that your school isn’t putting them into dangerous situations. They can work safely on the internet, using only sites that you are happy for them to see.
Prevent infection
Our web-based services detect, block and eliminate all known threats before they can cause any serious damage.
Your network is exposed to ever-increasing threats from the outside world. And these days, anti-virus protection isn’t enough. Spyware, worms and Trojans are all very different types of invader, and must be tackled in specific ways. Without the right protection in place, you could find your entire system corrupted and data lost.
There are lots of products claiming to protect you from some or all of the threats. Some do more harm than good. They may slow your system down, or even contain their own spyware. The supplier may quote prices for basic anti-virus software, then charge extra for covering spyware. They may not be easy to use on a network, leaving you unsure that they are working effectively. Critically, they may not send updates as often as necessary, leaving you open to infection.
We provide the total up-to-date security that you need for your school network. We install and run the system for you, so you can be confident that you’re always getting the best cover possible.
Keep your network safe from internal threats
It’s not enough just to cover external threats. Schools today hold information on their computer network that is confidential and should only be seen by those who need to see it. Even children will try to access confidential systems – and can succeed, if your security isn’t strong enough. We know of one ten-year old who hacked into his school’s network and changed all the teachers’ passwords.
We’ll make sure your confidential information stays that way, by setting up secure access restrictions that keep different users to their own areas.

Never lose data again
Even with the best protection possible, things can go wrong that cause your data to be lost. Reliable information backup systems are critical.
