During the Thanksgiving Break, E.C. Technology Operations staff were hard at work transitioning from the expiring, less flexibile content filtering system, Trustwave M86, to iBoss content filter solution. This will provide more fine-grained control over content filtering for mobile devices.

A little information about iBoss Content Filtering Solution:

When it comes to Web Content Management, many things haven’t changed since the Internet assumed a vital role in virtually every industry worldwide. 

iBoss is a web content filtering solution that is able to analyze network traffic at the packet level, with the ability to detect threats more quickly and block suspicious traffic mid-stream, while ensuring optimal network performance.

Over the next few weeks, if you should notice that web sites you could access are blocked, please don't hesitate to email Miguel Guhlin (miguel.guhlin@ecisd.net) or call 210-649-2343 to let us know!
