About FlashStart Technology
FlashStart is a comprehensive cloud-based solution for content filtering and malware protection, designed to secure end-user devices and networks. It forms part of the FlashStart Cloud family and is administered via a unified cloud dashboard for seamless management.
The FlashStart Cloud operates on geographically diverse server farms, ensuring high service availability and low latency. The filtering system utilizes DNS technology, which has a minimal impact on internet performance. FlashStart inspects only the small DNS packets that precede data transfer requests, ensuring no delay in subsequent data downloads.
FlashStart automatically identifies harmful or inappropriate content and blocks access to categories and websites based on predefined filtering rules. These rules can be customized to monitor or block specific activities and are logged for six months. Filtering can be scheduled based on time of day or user groups, offering flexibility for different user communities.
In terms of malware protection, FlashStart blocks access to known malware, ransomware, phishing sites, and other security threats. It also implements geoblocking to prevent access to high-risk regions associated with cyber threats.
Unintended content blocking can be resolved quickly, ensuring a smooth and frustration-free user experience.
