Our Approach with Norton Family Safety
Symantec Corporation – Norton Family SafetyISTTF Presentation 9/23/2008
• There are all kinds of dangers associated with kids and the internet• Cyberbullying, predators, online reputation and social networking dangers, web searches for inappropriate
content, and time abuse.
• A product that offers visibility and activity controls is crucial• The two concepts are equally important. You can’t control what you don’t see/know about/understand, and
therefore visibility is the first step to healthy dialogue. And once clear rules or boundaries are put in place, the product offers the technical ability to execute and uphold on the rules (i.e. blocking sites, managing time, etc.)
• How can a parent protect their family completely with today’s active lifestyles? Mobility of the product is key.
• Parents can’t possibly, nor do they want to, “watch over” their children whenever they are online. The ability to create visibility and control mechanisms that are location agnostic is extremely important.
• A successful relationship between child and parent with regards to online safety will result from constructive dialogue
• In stark contrast to many other products, Watchdog aims to provide the mechanisms that enable healthy dialogue, and the tools to shepherd children’s online activity by enforcing the agreed upon (or mandated) guidelines.
