Internet SafetyChild proofing your home
By Nicholas O'Sullivan
Personal Info• I’m a follower of Christ. • I entered into the IT field 7 years ago and I’ve focused on security the
last 12 months. • I’m self-employed as an IT Business operator and I’m employed at
Kirwan State High School. • What am I here for? I understand that you have little time to spend
finding and researching how to implement a security solution, that’s where I can help you by letting you know where you can get started.
Why am I here• I want to help you create a “safer’ online experience for your family. • How can I help you achieve and feel ‘safer’ online? • Network monitoring.• Parental controls.• Conversations with kids.
• Right to privacy• Privacy vs Secrecy - When kids become secretive as opposed to just having
some privacy.
What needs to be secured? • How do we secure your internet, in order to create a safer home
environment?
Here’s an example. ..
