Smoothwall Proactive Monitor alerts safeguarding teams to digital risks as they happen, so they can intervene early and help to prevent digital issues from becoming real-life incidents.
Monitoring that’s built for education with regulatory compliance in mind
As well as filtering, the DfE’s statutory guidance also states that appropriate monitoring systems should be in place. We’ve partnered with Smoothwall to offer schools, colleges and Multi Academy Trusts a reliable solution that measures up against regulatory obligations. And then some.
