BrowseControl's content filtering features allow administrators to configure the internet and application usage permissions of the students, employees, and patrons that use computers within their network.
Content filtering policies for websites, applications, and files can be granularly controlled with filters based on URL, categories, internet ports, and file types. Each configuration option can be customized based on users, devices, departments, or Organizational Units (OUs) to provide a solution that fits the organization's exact needs.
BrowseControl's filtering features are most often used for preventing access to malware-infested websites, productivity management, CIPA compliance, and enforcing acceptable use policies by proactively preventing employees from accessing inappropriate or unproductive websites.
About Malwarebytes
Malwarebytes is a premium security solution for businesses that works as an addition to traditional anti-virus products. It is focused on protection against ransomware, malware, threats and infected sites with the capability of removing annoying adware and toolbars that other security applications miss.
It works easily in tandem with other antivirus tools, adding powerful anti-exploit and anti-ransomware monitoring capacity. One of its most powerful features is the real-time protection. The program not only blocks threats from infecting the system but also generates an image and sound-based alert that attracts the attention of its users.
Another feature that stands out is the Anti-Exploit tool. It monitors for infections that get into a user's computer through software defects instead of malware. There is also the Chameleon tool, a countermeasure against sorts of malware that attempt to impair anti-malware programs on the computers they infect.
