Net Nanny Takes Instant Messaging Monitoring to the Next Level

Net Nanny has taken Instant Messaging (IM) Monitoring to the next level supporting almost every IM program available including: AIM/ICQ, Jabber/Google, MSN, MySpace IM, and Yahoo. You can set Net Nanny to block access to any of the supported IM protocols or you can use Net Nanny's IM logging features to look at what is being communicated.

Net Nanny has two IM logging features that can be used separately or together.

The IM Recording feature records each and every IM conversation.

IM Monitoring records only the potentially problematic parts of conversations but allows you to view the conversation in its entirety if necessary.

With IM Monitoring enabled, Net Nanny analyses each conversation and sends an e-mail alert to parents or other guardian if any segment has been flagged for inappropriate content. It even handles the quirky miss-spellings often used in IM such as “r u there?”

Net Nanny can flag predatory behavior or cyber bullying based on the type of content typed. For example: asking for personal information, trying to initiate direct contact, and assessing risks when someone asks "are your parents home?" Net Nanny will also flag conversations and send alerts based on other categories like profanity, hurtful or mean language, and sexual language.”
