SafeKeeper is among the newer parental control software products, but is certainly gaining momentum FAST! For less than half the cost of many other software programs, you can have access to the same features plus more. SafeKeeper was recently rated #1 by iParenting Media for the best parental control software, and after reviewing and testing the software for myself, I found out why.
SafeKeeper is a full suite of products packed into one. SafeKeeper offers one of the best features to block and restrict access to websites such as porn, gambling, violence, hate and drugs. You can choose to filter from the dozens of categories which currently is over 30 million websites! Or you can filter by using key phrases such as "sex" or "nudity". SafeKeeper's filtering system is maintained 24 hours a day by real people! And the best part is that you can customize each users access to websites. SafeKeeper also records both sides of chat conversations, allows you to control when and how long each user is allowed online, monitor your home computer from anywhere in the world and also offer a unique feature that shows you if sexual predators are in your area. You also get Anti-Virus, Firewall and Spyware software to make sure your family is protected not only from pedophiles and inappropriate content, but also hackers, viruses, spyware and more!
Internet Filter
Safekeeper automatically protects users from offensive websites. They have identified and blocked more than 30 million suspicious websites and dozens of threat categories. So, whenever your family members go online, they are protected from pornography, hate, drugs, gambling and other internet threats. Safekeeper blocks ‘key phrases’ that trigger our blocking filters. Then, their human assessment team adds common sense judgment (i.e. blocks the word “breast”, but allowing “breast cancer”). Their assessment team updates the KidSafe Blocker 24 hours a day. When Safekeeper is installed, the filter is automatically set to “ON”, blocking all potentially offensive websites. However, it can be customized for each family member, allowing you to control their access to specific categories and websites. You decide what is appropriate (or inappropriate) for each user.
Chat Monitor
Safekeeper monitors and records all instant message (IM) conversations, adding another layer of protection. Safekeeper will monitor IM sessions on each of the main services, including ICQ, AIM, Yahoo! and MSN. This is ideal for parents who are interested in blocking Instant Messaging or just monitoring who their children are chatting with. Safekeeper records both sides of the conversation, showing exactly what was said. Then, parents can sit with their child in a calm moment and discuss specific concerns. Parents can access these chat reports or change settings from any PC in the world! Safekeeper also includes a ‘chat dictionary, so you can decode your kid’s secret conversations.
Predator Alert
Safekeeper lets users know if sex offenders live in their neighborhood. Just enter your street address and a map will appear, showing the exact location of registered sex offenders living within a 5 mile radius. Clicking on a colored dot reveals the offenders name, photo and address. Also, Safekeeper will immediately send free e-mail alerts when sex offenders move into their neighborhood. Safekeeper users automatically receive a free, one-year subscription to Family Watchdog, the recognized leader in tracking registered sex offenders. Their information is provided by the U.S. Department of Justice and databases for all 50 states.
Time Controls
The Internet can be a great resource for homework and fun activities. But it can also be a distraction to children who’d rather play games or chat online. With Safekeeper, parents can control how, and when, each family member uses the computer. Safekeeper features several time grids. Individual time settings for each user allows adults to decide exactly when kids can use the computer, go online and use Instant Messenger. Once that time limit has been reached, Safekeeper, ends their session and ensures that the user cannot regain access.
Safety Shield
Safekeeper is committed to creating a safe online experience for families. But with hundreds of new websites launched every day, there is no way to guarantee 100% safety. While Safekeeper is constantly on the lookout for offensive websites, pornographers are getting more devious. So, if Safekeeper users find an offensive website, we encourage them to report it to us, so we can alert other Safekeeper users. Then, Safety Shield allows users to block those ‘reported’ sites with just one click.
Remote Monitoring
Check your home computer from anywhere in the world. When you are at work or away from home, you can log in easily to check on your kids and family. You can see an up-to-date transcript of their chat and IM activity. You can see the websites they have visited (or tried to visit). You can even change the time they can go online – or block access completely. Just one click does it.
Anti-virus, Anti-spyware and Firewall
Award-winning protection, rated excellent by consumer magazines. Protection is automatically updated every hour, blocking the latest viruses. Anti-Spyware identifies and blocks dangerous spyware from your computer and prevents hackers and pop-up ads from entering your computer. And the firewall insures that hackers stay out of your pc and your privacy stays safe.
