The “White Internet” service will limit children’s access to resources with undesirable content

The Moscow City Telephone Network (MGTS) has launched the “White Internet” service, which will expand the functions of previously implemented “Parental Control” services through the installation of a new traffic filtering system.

By using the service, it will be possible not only to block a particular site completely, but to deny access to its pages containing dangerous or undesirable content. There is also an ability to filter resources by their type of protocol that allows to block children’s access not only to torrents, but to online games as well.

The system provides subscribers with the ability to configure access to the Internet for children according to their age (children up to 7 years, 7-12 years, 12-18 years old, older than 18 years), according to the time spent online, to create a personal filtration profile and to form their own black and white lists. Beside, it is possible to connect the functionality of the secure search in the search engines to restrict access to the results in unsafe queries, as well as to receive reports on statistics of references to banned sites and search queries in “My Account” of any subscriber.

The filtration of sites will be provided due to the base of categorized Internet resources which contains about 100 million records in Russian and other languages. The catalog development occurs on the basis of automatic methods of dangerous sites analysis, open sources of international organizations.

Besides that, the sites are included in the list of undesirable query-based “This site is dangerous for my baby” from users of MGTS. This feature allows parents to inform the company about sites with inappropriate content for children. For this purpose it is necessary to send the link to the screening site from “My Account”.  After the screening there will be made a decision if the site should be in the the list of dangerous resources.

The control system of internet traffic is on the MGTS network, thus  the safety control of children on the Internet will be implemented regardless of the type of a device connected to the network.
