REDUCE ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN FOR SCHOOL IT STAFF
Centralized, Customizable Web Filtering and Policy Tools Make it Easy

Over the last few years, school IT administrators have seen their workloads intensify. The move to remote learning created a demand for additional district-supplied devices for home and school, and consequently, the need to secure students from harmful content and cyber threats online and offline. Added to this, student safety and mental health became a more pressing priority, with an uptick in school shootings, self-harm, and cyberbullying impacting the emotional wellbeing of children and teens.
School IT managers need efficient web and content filtering that’s easy to use and deploy, cost effective and highly reliable to meet the quickly evolving technology needs of all students.
