Children are exposed to real risks when they go online!



An Excerpt from the State of Internet Security Report:

to real risks when they go online. Parents’ commitment to understanding their children’s online activities and setting age-appropriate rules, along with using software to help monitor and enforce the rules, provide the best combination to protect kids online.

Report Highlights:

Kids Online

  • Almost 60 percent of children three and older are using the Internet.
  • Forty-three percent of teens who use reported having been contacted online by complete strangers.
  • Thirty-seven percent of children ages 11 to 17 reported they had received a email or pop-up advertisement within the past year.
  • In homes where children under 18 use the Internet, there was a 28 percent greater incidence of spyware infections in the preceding 6 months. Thanks to Cracker Boy, for this great report.
