Securing your family, personal data through remote monitoring

Westport
-
There have been countless news articles about children interacting with potential predators. Parents and guardians have had to rely on web browser functions and Internet features, but new software has become more powerful to monitor web activity.
Although some parents have been criticized as being overprotective, the statistics published by the Crimes Against Children Research Center (CACRC) and the Center for Missing and Exploited Children (CMEC) are rather telling:


- One in five teenagers who regularly use the Internet say they receive unwanted sexual solicitation

- Three-quarters of children are willing to share personal information on the Internet

- 25 percent of children who have encountered sexual solicitation online don?t tell their parents

- More than three-quarters of targets for online predators are 14 years of age or older

- Another 25 percent of children have made contact with pornographic material


It is a dangerous world and potential pedophiles, owners of prostitution rings and predators utilize several websites to gain access to young demographics, such as Facebook and Twitter. This has dramatically changed from the days of predators using online chat rooms, as depicted in the hit NBC show ?To Catch a Predator.?


John Whitaker, special agent in charge of Georgia Bureau of Investigation's Child Exploitation and Computer Crimes Unit, told USA Today that ?there is no real way for parents to monitor it all.? With innovations in technology, parents, children, businesses, public departments and other individuals and entities no longer have to be victims of Internet breaches. WebWatcher, found in 2002, is the latest company that has been recognized as one of the top remote monitoring software on the Internet and can be used by anyone. Its features allow users to see messages, keystrokes, screenshots, visited websites and a lot more in real-time from anywhere in the world. It offers real-time alerts and triggers of questionable activity directly to your email, which is available for Microsoft Windows and Apple MAC OS X. WebWatcher, based in Westport, Connecticut, also maintains software for smartphones. WebWatcher Mobile employs the same type of online security and user interface and permits account holders access to emails, phone calls, text messages and other aspects available for Android and BlackBerry devices. For those who store important and sensitive data on laptops, another top feature is its Laptop Cop. This capability protects owners if the laptop is lost or stolen. It gives users the advantage of retrieving, restoring, locking down and geolocating the laptop. All of these functions can be accessed by any web browser in the world. The entire process takes five minutes to complete: download and install, record and transmit and access and review. WebWatcher is invisible on the monitored devices and all of the activity, whether it be screenshots, call logs or instant messages (IMS), is sent to the online account and can be accessed at any place and any time. PCMag.com awarded WebWatcher an Editors? Choice, while it also was an About.com winner, a top pick of Well Research Reviews and Inc. 500?s 2011 fastest growing companies in the United States. It has been featured on Fox News and NBC and in Forbes magazine. In a world where personal data has been public and hacking has become the norm, Internet security has become the forefront of Internet and computer innovations.
