Advances in information technology have ensured easy availability of explicit and illegal adult content. Content of this nature being viewed on an organization's computers can reduce user productivity, expose the organization to legal liabilities and foster a culture of sexual harassment. ScreenShield™ monitors all internet content, instant messaging exchanges and files for words and phrases indicative of sexual harassment, bullying or inappropriate subject matter. When inappropriate material is detected an incident report is generated and, if specified, access to the content is blocked. ScreenShield™ also monitors the users’ keystrokes so that the perpetrators of the content can be identified.

ScreenShield™ has the following advantages:

• Automatic audition of hardware and software
  
  
• Complete web based network management package
  
  
• Customizable Protection Mode
  
  
• Detailed incident reports
  
  

ScreenShield™ offers the following features:

• ScreenShield™ is fully customizable and profiles can be created for both individuals and groups of users.
  
  
• Any pornographic images captured will be logged and stored on the ScreenShield™ Server along with the PC name, user name, time and the action taken. The administrator can review suspected pornographic images and print reports detailing improper usage of computer facilities.
  
  
• ScreenShield™ automatically audits the hardware and software on all the PCs in the organization on a regular basis. Administrators are notified when there is a change in a PC's configuration.
  
  
• ScreenShield™ also performs drive and network audits which give detailed information of both file and network usage for any given user. Further ScreenShield™ monitors PC idle time and can automatically hibernate or shut down machines that are left unattended for long periods.
  
  
• ScreenShield™ provides a complete web based network management package designed for use by functional heads within the organization rather than IT administrators.
  
  
• ScreenShield™ can be scaled up to support over 50,000 PCs per organization. This is made possible through sophisticated cascading server architecture. ScreenShield™ servers can be configured as Q"BranchQ", Q"AreaQ" or Q"HQ" servers.
  
  
• ScreenShield™ allows administrators to assign productivity ratings to software; providing them a quick means of ascertaining the overall productivity of the users within their domain.
