How Our Managed Web Filtering Works

Deploy in hours, not weeks — no on-site hardware required.

1) Assess & Design

We review users, devices and compliance requirements, then propose baseline policies.

Roll out DNS/web filtering with identity integration for accurate, user-level control.

3) Tune Policies

We refine categories, allow/deny lists and schedules based on real-world usage.

4) Monitor & Report

Dashboards, alerts and scheduled reports keep you informed and compliant.

Web Filtering & Security — FAQs

What is web filtering?

Web filtering blocks access to harmful, inappropriate or unapproved websites using DNS and content controls. It reduces risk from malware, phishing and data loss while supporting productivity.

Can I choose which sites or categories to block?

Yes. Policies can block categories (e.g., adult, gambling, streaming) and specific URLs/domains. Allow-lists ensure trusted business sites are always reachable.

Does it work for remote and hybrid users?

Roaming protection applies off-network so users remain protected at home, on client sites or while travelling.

Will it slow the internet down?

No noticeable impact. Filtering occurs in the cloud with lightweight agents or DNS controls to keep browsing fast.

Do you provide reports and alerts?

Yes — dashboards, scheduled reports and real-time alerts provide visibility for security and compliance needs.

What’s included in the managed service?

Design, deployment, policy tuning, allow/deny list management, reporting schedules, monitoring and UK-based support.
