Powered by the Websense ThreatSeeker™ Network, Livia delivers enterprise-class Web filtering and Web security for the home

The National Parenting Center Seal of ApprovalSAN DIEGO, November 19, 2008 – Total Tech, a provider of innovative Internet security solutions, today announced that Livia Web Protection, an easy-to-use Web filtering solution for the home that safeguards families from online dangers while helping parents manage how their children use the Internet, has been awarded the 2008 Seal of Approval from The National Parenting Center.   

Built on industry-leading Web security technology from Websense, Inc. that safeguards more than 42 million employees and students worldwide, Livia Web Protection protects children from adult and other undesirable content, while securing family computers from Web-based threats and cybercriminals. 

“The National Parenting Center's Seal of Approval program provides an independent testing procedure conducted to judge products introduced and marketed to the parent and child consumer market,” said David Katzner, president, The National Parenting Center. “With this filtering software, our testers told us how relieved they felt knowing that Livia was working even when they could not always be monitoring their child's Web activity. That's worth the subscription right there.” 

“Livia Web Protection was created to help parents protect children from accessing explicit online material,” said Ken Hamilton, CEO for Total Tech. “Being awarded The National Parenting Center Seal of Approval validates the technology, ease of use, and our mission to offer an effective tool to aid parents in keeping their children safe online.”

Livia Web Protection delivers the most comprehensive, accurate Web protection available using the Websense database of more than 40 million Web sites. Once filtering policies are set, browsing to specific Web sites is either allowed or blocked, based on the category of those sites. For example, if a child were accidentally to follow a link to an adult or undesirable Web site, access to that Web site will be automatically denied.

The National Parenting Center's Seal of Approval program, created in 1990 as an adjunct to TNPC's support services, identifies the finest products and services being marketed to the parent/child audience. From educational and entertainment products and equipment to travel destinations, the consumer oriented testing process solicits evaluations from parents and their children. This award signifies to other parents that their peers have acknowledged a product's quality and desirability based on a wide variety of determining factors.
