FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Guardware Launches
Parent-Control Software, iShield™ Plus
-
Safe and Effective Anti-Pornography Management for Total Family
Protection -
Media, PA (September 3, 2007) - Guardware,
the global leader in anti-pornography software, announced that
iShield™ Plus, the parental control software designed to
block pornography and other undesirable content, is shipping today.
Designed for the home user who needs the comfort and security
that children and other family members will not be exposed to
pornography or other undesirable content, iShield™ Plus provides
families safe, reliable protection against undesirable and offensive
content-such as pornography or drug, hate or gambling sites-found
across the Web or based in computer files. Offering the highest
level of protection against computer based or Internet pornography,
iShield™ Plus is a total solution for Web, chat, e-mail,
news, keywords in search engines and file sharing.
iShield™ Plus is the home user's version of the company's
award-winning, anti-pornography software.
The Guardware anti-pornography product line is used by governments,
schools and families across XXX number of countries. Unlike traditional
filtering solutions, iShield™ Plus uses Guardware's sophisticated
image-recognition technology and text analysis to securely manage
how parents regulate the content from Web browsers or computer
based files. Its parental monitoring capabilities and easy-to-use
interface give families heightened security features; better file
and screen protection against videos, text and images; voluntary
configuration profiles for all family members; and discriminating
monitoring of IM and chat applications. iShield™ Plus' design
is content-aware, works across the Internet and computer, and
is easy to learn. It provides secure and safe content control
that families and parents need, at a price they can afford.
A more enjoyable Web experience
The home user version of the award-winning ScreenShield™,
iShield™ Plus is designed to block and filter inappropriate
content such as pornography, gambling, drugs and hate sites displayed
within Internet browsers, instant messages, e-mail attachments,
videos and DVDs. Because it bases its decision on the content-not
the Web site-parents don't have to keep up with a list of suspect
Web sites or senders to ensure they monitor and block the display
of offensive content on their home PCs.
"iShield™ Plus delivers to families the highest level
of control and custom features for screening offensive content
at home," said Ian McKinley, CEO of Guardware. "We love
to see families successfully monitoring their home computers from
content they don't want their children or other loved ones exposed
to. We're excited to enhance our Guardware product line to include
home computers by developing iShield™ Plus to be simple to
use and optimized for family use, while delivering safer content
and more secure protection."
