LANCOM Content Filter +25 Option (1 year)

Optimal protection against network abuse
The LANCOM Content Filter offers an efficient solution for protecting networks from misuse, thus preventing inappropriate bandwidth usage and malware downloads. By blocking unwanted and illegal internet content, the included BPjM filter not only reliably protects minors from content harmful to minors, but also maintains business integrity and minimizes liability risks.

Advantages

Protection against misuse of the network
With the LANCOM Content Filter, the network“s bandwidth remains entirely reserved for business operations, and websites containing spyware, phishing, viruses, etc. are securely blocked. The Content Filter uses database-driven web filtering technology, in which an external rating server checks the requested websites online for their actual content. The administrator can freely configure which thematic categories are blocked and which are accessible. Three predefined security profiles – Basic, Company, and Parental Control – also ensure quick and efficient implementation of this solution.

Protection against content harmful to minors
With the integrated BPjM Filter, you can ensure that content classified as harmful to minors by the German Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons (BPjM) in a legally regulated process is blocked for children and young people. This ensures maximum safety for minors in school environments, during leisure activities, or at home. And best of all: The maximum number of users of the BPjM Filter is always unlimited, regardless of the number of users of the LANCOM Content Filter (available for LANCOM devices starting with LCOS 10.70).

Individual time and profile-based configuration
Within a network, the LANCOM Content Filter allows users to freely configure access rights to websites based on time and individual users. For example, content that is blocked during core working hours can be accessed during lunch breaks. It is also possible to create individual user profiles so that internet content relevant to the workplace, for example, is accessible to the relevant individuals.

Everything in view thanks to comprehensive statistics
The LANCOM Content Filter offers comprehensive statistics with analyses by category. For example, top-10 lists can be created over a configurable time period, showing attempts to access blocked and override URLs. All statistics are compiled on a non-personal basis, ensuring compliance with strict data protection guidelines.

Category-based overrides for websites
The override button allows users to temporarily access blocked websites for legitimate reasons, allowing them to access blocked URLs for a short time without having to reconfigure them. The override can be enabled per category and monitored via email, SYSLOG, and SNMP.

Effective protection for every size
The content filter is licensed on a per-user basis. The LANCOM device only counts the IP addresses that attempt to access content blocked by the filter. Licensing in various sizes allows for precise adaptation or convenient expansion to the network.
