ABSTRACT
SpectorSoft Corporation, the leading provider of Computer
Monitoring software, offers several consumer products to
assist parents in enforcing Internet safety for their children.
Specifically, SpectorSoft software empowers parents to
monitor their children’s online activities, including their
eMails, Chat/IMs, Website visits, File Transfers and more
to ensure that their Internet experience is positive, healthy
and safe. Other product features allow parents to isolate
their children from potentially harmful content and other
inappropriate sources and to alert them when the child
deviates from what is deemed acceptable as established by
the parent.

PROBLEM INTRODUCTION
Left uncontrolled the Internet can be an extremely
dangerous place for a child. Unknowing children are often
the target of bad intentioned adults who often try to arrange
for physical meetings after gaining the trust of the child
online. Children also can accidentally stumble upon adult
oriented content including pornography or can intentionally
visit these sites in an act of rebellion. Excessive use of the
computer for game playing and such is also a prolific
problem amongst children especially teenagers who
typically spend hours upon hours on Chat/IM and at social
networking sites such as MySpace, Facebook and other
popular sites such as YouTube. Inappropriate and unethical
use of computers is also on the rise by children which
includes but is not limited to cyberbullying, alcohol and
drug abuse and sex.
Traditionally the approach has been to try blocking access
to all the potentially harmful content, illicit activities, and
bad intentioned adults that a child may come in contact
with on the Internet. The problem with those traditional
approaches is that they do a poor job of determining what
should be prevented and often block content that should be
allowed in the first place.
In reaction, parents are becoming more proactive in the
monitoring of their children when online to ensure that they
are being safe and presenting themselves appropriately to
their peers while using the Internet. The SpectorSoft
approach allows the child’s behavior to be monitored
affording the parent the opportunity to provide the guidance
for what is appropriate.
PROPOSED SOLUTIONS
Solution #1:
With SpectorSoft’s eBlaster software (Figure 1), parents
can observe exactly what their children are viewing online,
who they communicate with and the content of their chats,
emails and instant messages. eBlaster continually records
this information, organizes it into an easy to read activity
report and then sends the report to the parent’s email
address instantly — no matter where they are in the world.
In addition, eBlaster can be configured to instantly forward
copies of their chat sessions and email messages. With
eBlaster, parents can see what their kids are up to on the
Internet, whether at work, at home or traveling for business.
