Press Release Summary: Parents are being urged to install internet filters to help
protect their children from online predators.

Press Release Body:
The Senate Bill 1738 has highlighted the importance of online protection for
children on a legislative level however; parents are being urged to ensure that
their children are protected from online predators at home through installing
internet filters such as Integard.

The threat of child exploitation via the internet is a growing concern for parents.
To ensure that children are safe online, Integard Internet Filter has been developed
to prevent children from disclosing personal information to strangers through online
chat conversations. Integard has comprehensive features for protecting children
online, is easy to install and customise and supports multiple users.

Integard has the ability to monitor chat conversations and other online behaviour,
any conversations containing signs of depression, communication with online predator
or other suspicious activities can be discreetly reported to parents via email.

Spokesperson for Integard, Mr Daniel Millerson said that the issue of child
exploitation will continue if parents and guardians do not educate their children
about ‘stranger danger’ online.

“We can no longer ignore the potential dangers online, parents need to take action
by educating their children and installing appropriate software to protect their
children from harm online,” Mr Millerson said.

Integard Internet Content Filter was developed in 2006 by the Australian company
Race River. Integard is the most technologically advanced internet filter on the
market providing online safety for children.
