Internet & Data Security for Schools & Libraries

WebTitan provides education grade content filtering via an advanced DNS web filter with real-time malicious threat detection and DNS web categorizations. WebTitan allows schools and libraries meet CIPA compliance requirements, providing technologies that go above and beyond content filtering to ensure  children are protected. 

If you have CIPA requirements, WebTitan can help.

The Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) was enacted by Congress in 2000 to address concerns around children's access to harmful or offensive internet content. CIPA imposes requirements on schools that receive discounted internet access and services via the E-rate program.

The following education filtering policy is offered to all education customers that require content filtering as part of a CIPA compliant solution.
