Bsafe Online Teams with Focus on the Family to Provide
Internet Safety Solutions for Families
Bristol, TN, Jan. 16, 2008 - In an effort to provide parents
with the best resources for keeping their families’ safe online, Focus on the
Family has added Bsafe Online to its available resources through its Family
Safety Initiative (www.Family.org/safety)
Bsafe Online is honored to be part of the parental control options offered by
Focus on the Family and its Family Safety Initiative.
Bsafe Online CEO Joe Gregory says, “Bsafe Online shares the same values and
commitment as Focus on the Family to help parents navigate the rough waters of
objectionable material from today’s culture sent through movies, television and
the Internet.”
Focus on the Family Senior Vice President Steve Maegdlin sees the Family
Safety resources available at family.org/safety as valuable tools for today’s
parents that can help in the fight against objectionable and threatening
material.
“We continue to hear from concerned parents every day about their kids’
activities online,” said Maegdlin. “The dangers kids face -- and we’re not just
talking about pornography but threats like cyber-bullying for example -- are
very real. Parents are wise to take necessary actions to protect their children
while online. Bsafe Online’s solution is one great first step in doing so.”
Bsafe Online’s All-in-One Security Suite just received an iParenting Media
Award for “Greatest Products 2007”. The downloadable software provides
protection for your family by blocking inappropriate websites, providing
time-of-day controls as well as a weekly web activity report. Bsafe’s exclusive
PredAlert instant messaging monitoring is specifically designed to block and
deter predators from contacting children. The Bsafe All-in-One Security Suite
also provides protection for your computer with McAfee anti-virus, SPAM filter,
pop-up blocker and more.
Focus on the Family’s Family Safety Initiative provides parents with access to
innovative ideas and proven strategies for keeping their families safe.
According to Rich Bennett, director of Focus of Family’s Family Safety
Initiative, “As an organization dedicated to serving and strengthening
families, Focus on the Family continues to work to equip families with the
tools, resources and information they need to effectively manage their kids’
online and entertainment activities.”
