Web Filter / Content Filtering |
| |
Web filter or content filtering is commonly used by organisations such as offices and schools to prevent computer users from viewing inappropriate web sites or content. Filtering rules are typically set by a central IT department and may be implemented via software on individual computers or at a central point on the network such as the proxy server or internet router. Depending on the sophistication of the system used, it may be possible for different computer users to have different levels of internet access. |
