Complete Cloud Based Web Filtering Solution for Schools and Families
Delivered through the cloud, Securly provides both in-school and take-home filtering through the same admin console.
Zero-touch filtering of 1:1 take home Chromebooks using a Chrome extension that takes seconds to deploy. No proxying. No SSL certificates.
Support for any heterogeneous mix of 1:1 devices including iPads, Windows, Macs, and Android/Nexus tablets.
Location based policies for take-home 1:1 devices when the devices are off school premises.
Securly's cloud architecture consists of a core policy engine that can be deployed either as a DNS-service, Proxy, or plugin. This means, for in-school filtering, admins can use a DNS forwarder setting and have the entire district be setup for in-school filtering in under 5-minutes. For take-home Chromebooks, our Chrome Web Store plugin can be pushed down for ubiquitous coverage within 60 seconds. Likewise, for iPads, Windows, Macs, and other devices, you can use the MDM of your choice to push down Proxy PAC file or DNS settings within minutes. All of these devices are then policed by the same central cloud-based policing engine through a unified admin console.
Safe Search and YouTube:
Admins can optionally enforce the safety-mode on Google, Bing and Yahoo search engines. For YouTube, schools can have an open but safe environment where videos flagged by the YouTube community are filtered out.
Search Engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing and Social media sites like YouTube have become necessary tools of instruction in the 21th century classroom. These are often the first places a student would go to while researching a class project. However, as an educator, you are all too aware of the perils that unfiltered access to these tools can bring. An innocuous search term can end up as a major classroom distraction. Securly forces on safety mode in Google, Yahoo, Bing and YouTube. Any attempts to turn off safety mode will be intercepted and blocked by Securly. On top of the safety-modes of these sites, we use our own dictionary of unsafe keywords to determine if a search should be allowed or not. Further, we also block a long list of other unsafe search engines and social media sites.
School Focused Filter Categories:
Handpicked categories that make sense for Schools. Admins are not overwhelmed by enterprise categories such as Radio, Television, Humor!
Per User Policies:
Through the GApps Single Sign On, Securly provides policies mapped to individual Organizational Units.
Granular White & Black Lists:
White and Black lists can be created for entire district, individual schools or even individual Org Units.
Whitelist-only Mode:
Admins can create whitelisted environments for certain Org Units (e.g. for online tests or elementary students) for added security.
