| Launch of New Weapon in Fight Against Paedophiles A British company's security device for home computers is being heralded as the ultimate weapon in helping to keep children safe from paedophiles on the Internet. XGate – a security device from Manchester-based, market leading security company Global Security One – addresses this issue. The pioneering power of the XGate is immediate for all to see: the ability to instantly oversee and control a child's online activity in a chatroom from a mobile phone can offer parents total peace of mind. Parents have the capability to monitor their child's conversations or, where required, block access to the chatroom and even shut down the PC via their mobile phone. XGate is not a piece of software that sits on the PC and slows it down. It is a device which plugs into the PC and includes an ADSL modem, enabling the user to safely browse the Internet as fast the connection allows. Key benefits of this approach include: - it is a unified approach to home Internet security so doing away with the need for the user to buy disparate pieces of software or worry about integration, compatibility and licensing issues. - A single XGate meets all home broadband Internet security needs and allows up to 4 computers to be connected. - A single renewal relieve the user from tracking multiple software subscriptions. - It's a stand alone device which stops threats before they reach the computer. Unlike conventional security software which will only identify threats when they have actually infiltrated the computer system. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Computing News :: home page |
