Internet Content Filtering Used to Protect Elementary & Middle School Children

Internet Filtering Upgrade to 8e6 R3000 Internet Filter Summary

As an internet filtering, monitoring and reporting solution from 8e6 had already been implemented in the Cobb County School District with great success, an upgrade from the 8e6 R2000 Internet Filter device to the more robust 8e6 R3000 Internet Filter was a “no brainer”.

Committed to educational development as well as student and staff security, CCSD proactively sought an internet filtering solution prior to the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) of 2000. At the same time, CCSD wanted to ensure the filtering product would fit within its budgetary requirements, would be flexible, and the vendor would provide excellent support and attention. With a current student population of over 102,000 and growing by about 2,500 each year, an upgrade to the 8e6 R3000 Internet Filter was a cost effective solution.

“The 8e6 R3000 Internet Filter product has many new enhancements and expanded categories to allow for a much more robust filtering solution. After the previous success with the 8e6 R2000 Internet Filter for the initial three years, it was a ‘no brainer’ that renewing and upgrading to the new, beefed-up version of the 8e6 R3000 Internet Filter was the way the district needed to go. The District, like all entities, is very focused on Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and has to consider price as a major factor in all things. The 8e6 R3000 Internet Filter is not only fully featured, but it is one of the most cost effective products on the market.”
