The Need for Mobile Device Filtering in Schools
Here are situations in which using a school-owned mobile device can cause risks:- A teacher uses a laptop at home and then brings it back into school. Did you realize that this can threaten the security of your school's network? An unfiltered laptop used off-network can be victimized by rogue sites and then compromise your network when it is reconnected.
- Students using a school-owned laptop or iPad can easily dodge your filter while in school using widely available, free WiFi access or a personal hotspot.
- Sending your students home with an iPad can expose them to inappropriate content.
Anywhere Filter… a CIPA-Compliant Mobile Filter
Now, with the new Anywhere Filter, CIPA compliant Internet access is maintained for your school-owned mobile devices. When students and staff use a mobile device off-network, your school's policy is enforced using any available Internet connection. And, that's not all.Anywhere Filter provides continuous protection for your mobile devices from accessing malicious sites. This extra level of mobile security relieves your technology staff of the frustrations, burdens, and costs of repairing compromised devices.
