CyberPatrol Information Center

Help Make Your Internet Experience Safer at home, school and work

The CyberPatrol Learning Center provides tips, facts, information and additional resources for families, businesses, and schools and libraries interested in Internet safety issues. At CyberPatrol, we believe it’s important to understand the potential dangers of the Internet and the steps you can take to protect yourself at home as well as in a business environment.

Our web filtering technologies provide an extra layer of security to those already using anti-virus, anti-spyware, and firewalls. By limiting where people can go on the Internet you can greatly reduce the risk of landing on a website that has been designed to distribute malware, steal your identity or put your reputation at risk as a result of Web-borne attacks.

Family Resources

The CyberPatrol Family Safety section provides you with the resources you need to understand potential online dangers and to help keep your family safe. Tools and resources can be found here to both help you understand the dangers and to begin conversations with your children about their online activity. As with any other activities your children are engaged in, it is important for parents to become involved. The first step is to know where they go and what they do online.

Business Resources

Business environments have different needs and concerns when it comes to Internet safety. Businesses need to be concerned with legal liability issues from employees viewing questionable content at work, potential loss of productivity, security risks as well as bandwidth issues caused by inappropriate surfing at work. Not only are there productivity issues, inappropriate surfing can cause security nightmares from viruses, spyware, spam and other malicious content that is often times distributed from web sites. Web filtering technology offers an additional layer of security by preventing employees from going to sites that distribute malware.

Educational/Library Resources

Today, schools and libraries face new challenges with technology. It is important for these institutions to protect their students from stumbling upon questionable web sites that can negatively affect students and possibly create a security nightmare on the network as well. Software alone is not enough. CyberPatrol provides numerous resources to help educate students about online safety.
