SocialShield Alerts Parents to On-line Dangers for their Kids

Do you know what’s going on in your child’s on-line life? Did she post compromising photos of herself for predators to see? Is she being cyberbullied? Is he considering suicide?

We’ve all heard the horror stories of children going as far as committing suicide because of things that happened to them on-line. As parents, there are tools to help us monitor our children’s activities so it doesn’t have to get to that point. One of these products is SocialShield http://www.socialshield.com
SocialShield provides parents with internet safety tools that can help them keep their kids out of trouble on social networks like Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter, according to a statement on their website. The technology they offer protects kids from cyberbullying, sexual predators, spoofing, use of profanity or talk of sex, drugs, violence or suicide which could damage their online reputation.
Some of the tools they offer include:
The Photo Engine™ combs hundreds of millions of files every day looking for pictures where your child may be identified.
The Alert Engine™ searches throughout the SocialWeb to find accounts for your kids that you may or may not know about, examines every word they say on their walls and reports back to you any suspicious activity.
The Friends Engine™ shows you who their friends are and whether any should be considered suspicious.
The Activity Engine™ documents every single posting they make on all of the major networks so that you can research and take action on troubling conduct.
According to the website, you cannot do what SocialShield does just by being a friend on your kid’s network or having their password. Their SocialWeb safety engines investigate your kid’s friends and checks them against more than 50 Internet databases to see if they are who they say they are. All engines are unique to SocialShield and patent-pending, the website states.
SocialShield points out on their site that being on-line is not all bad. Kids learn to type and spell, they meet people from different cultures across the globe, and get to express themselves and “spread their wings,” they say. However, there can be a dark side, and we, as parents, need to be there for our kids if others write horrible things about them, indiscreet pictures are posted of them or worse.
