Key Features and Benefits of
iPrism
Back to Top

Comprehensive Protection
 | iPrism utilizes more than 60
different categories including adult content, violence, leisure
activities, gambling, chat, sports and stocks. |
 | Web robots crawl the Internet daily
and present new suspect sites to teams of human Internet analysts who
accurately categorize them according to content. |
 | More than 5,000 new sites are
found, reviewed and categorized weekly. |
 | The database of Web site
classifications and categories are automatically updated every night
without administrator intervention via EduTech Computer Services'
secure subscription service. |
 | Even non-technical administrators
can easily configure category ratings and add user-defined categories
and services. |
 | iPrism controls access to other
time sapping and bandwidth draining Internet services such as IRC and
ICQ chat, streaming audio, streaming video, Telnet, FTP and more. |

Precise Control of Monitoring and Blocking for
Maximum Flexibility and Coverage
 | iPrism supports multiple access
profiles with different privileges based upon group, sub-group or
individual user requirements. |
|
 | All user access requests to the
Internet are automatically identified and monitored, with
comprehensive, customizable reporting available. |
|
 | Monitoring and blocking can be
scheduled by time of day. |
|
 | iPrism filters utilizing full URL
names, such as www.playboy.com, and includes the ability to block
subdirectories while allowing top-level directories to be viewed. This
offers improved control, better accuracy, greater reliability and
faster access than other systems that filter by keywords or IP
addresses alone. |
|
 | Sites entered by IP address are
automatically detected and handled properly just as if the URL had
been entered. |
|
 | Users with override privileges can
enter name and password to provide access to blocked sites.
|
|
 | iPrism can allow access to only
"safe" search engines, such as Yahoo's yahooligans.com, thus
preventing inappropriate search results. |
|
 | The "access denied" page can be
customized to explain the organization's particular Internet Access
Policy. |

performance impact. |
