The key features

Real-time web content categorization

Classifying millions of websites daily, using categorization name service (CNS), a

comprehensive AI solution, web content is categorized into 90+ database categories,

including extremism, weapons, sexual education and substance abuse, which are

made available for schools in real-time.

Granular policy management

Applying web filtering actions at a granular level, where access is applied at a school

district, school, group (students/staff) or individual user basis, ensures the right access

is provided to the right user. Using time and calendar-based permissions opens web

access to users outside of learning hours.

Per-user filtering

Supporting integration with popular directory service systems, such as Microsoft Active Directory, Microsoft Azure Directory, Apple Open Directory and Google Directory,

individual users can be identified using IP address or directory synchronization,

allowing schools to easily flag users who are abusing the network or at risk of harm.

Selective SSL Inspection

Allowing for the filtering of encrypted traffic in the same way as unencrypted traffic, the

secure socket layer decryption provides categorization for HTTP, HTTPS and FTP

web traffic protecting school networks from virus-based threats and proxy avoidance.

In-depth analytics & custom reports

Simplifying the analysis of network traffic (highlighting data such as specific requests,

websites and user inputted data) schools can manipulate and transform this data into 40+

predefined or customizable, easy to read reports. These reports can be scheduled

to run as frequently as required and can be shared with other users with ease.

Multi-lingual filtering

Reviewing URL data in over 45+ languages (including Spanish, French, Arabic and

Italian, and many more), schools have the confidence to detect high-risk categories in

other languages, particularly useful for those students where English is a second language.

Multi-site filtering & management

Providing filtering services to multiple locations in a single deployment, school

districts can centrally apply policy management and reporting requirements

to all policy servers, whilst delegating administrative permissions to each school (where these policies and reports can be

tailored if required).

Off-network device filtering

Enforcing filtering across Windows, Mac, Chrome, iOS and Android, proprietary

technology makes policy decisions within the client itself, ensuring any device connected to a Wi-Fi network is secure. Regardless of location,

users are protected and traffic is delivered directly back to the school via a device filter, available as an add-on to Impero Web:check.

Safe Search control

Enforcing the “Safe Search” functionality across popular web search engines such as Google, Bing and YouTube, students have

an additional layer of safety from potentially offensive content.

The key benefits

Save time

Reduce system management overheads but distributing administrative permissions to

individual school sites, saving masses of time for school technical teams.

Keep students safe

Protect students from harmful or inappropriate content through

comprehensive web content scanning and categorization.

Improve student productivity

Remove online distractions by restricting access to particular websites, such as social

media, across devices on an individual, group, school or school district-wide basis, to focus

learning in the classroom.

Save money

Available on-premise or cloud-hosted, Impero Web:check can be installed on both physical and virtual servers that are tailored

for the needs of your network, allowing schools to re-purpose existing underutilised

infrastructure and reducing the total cost of ownership.

Support BYOD and 1:1

Prompt unmanaged devices that are not signed onto the domain controller for

authentication to ensure any and every device on the network is safe and protected.

Intervene early

Provide insights into user activity by analyzing in-depth analytics and daily reports, so staff can easily detect students who may

be at risk of harm and mediate before a situation escalates.

Comply with legislation

Designed to ensure schools are CIPA compliant, Impero Web:check helps schools

fulfil their legal obligation.

Maximize security

Protect your school network from known malware threats such as viruses, spyware,

phishing frauds and other forms of malicious code by combining a range of data sources.

Reduce bandwidth

Minimize bandwidth usage by restricting access to streaming websites, reducing web-usage downtime and ensuring classes can be

delivered effectively.

The complete student safety package, with Impero Education Pro

Protecting students from harmful or inappropriate content at a network level, Impero Web:check restricts content before it’s delivered to the end-user. Going beyond this, Impero Education Pro provides real-time monitoring and keyword detection functionality to highlight any online dangers students may be searching for. Together, technical teams have the ultimate package for filtering and monitoring online web content effectively.

How Impero Education Pro’s online safety features work

Impero’s online student safety features identify key words, phrases, abbreviations or acronyms, which are typed anywhere on the network (including HTML, web browsers, emails, applications etc). This helps to pinpoint vulnerable students potentially engaged in at-risk activity. Using built-in keyword libraries that have been developed in partnership with a number of charities and specialist organizations, Impero provides alerts relating to a broad range of student safety issues.

How Impero Education Pro and Impero Web:check work together

Using Impero Education Pro and Impero Web:check together allows schools and school districts to have an appropriate monitoring and an appropriate filtering solution in place to ensure students are safe from harmful material on the school network.
