What’s the difference between Safe Web Surfing and Parental controls?
When Safe Web Surfing is enabled as you’re surfing the Internet and are about to open a potentially harmful site, an alert displays on your browser informing you that the site may be harmful to your computer or to your personal data. There are certain sites on the Internet that are “flagged” as potentially harmful, meaning they may contain viruses, install malware on your computer, or attempt to access your personal data. You can continue on to the site, or decide not to open it. QUICK TIP: When Safe Web Surfing is enabled, it applies to all computers connected to the Valet or Valet Plus Hotspot. Parental controls allows you to restrict the use of Internet on specific computers in your home. You can restrict access to the Internet for specific days and times, or allow Internet access but restrict access to specific web content. NOTE: Parental controls in Cisco Connect can be set up for up to five (5) computers or devices.
