SafeLabs uses VPN technology to provide a ‘Child Safe’ Internet experience. All Internet traffic from SafeLabs customers PCs, Laptops and mobile devices is forwarded to SafeLabs VPN servers which apply different measures to keep children’s online experience as safe as possible.

Block Inappropriate websites
There are around 1 million websites on the Internet with explicit adult content. It is impossible to manually track or block them. There are 10 to 200 new domain names coming everyday that show adult content.

SafeLabs is continuously monitoring the web and adding domains into its blacklists within 24 to 48 hours of the them being identified.

Restrict Search Engine Results
Search engines are the primary gateway of users to unknown websites and domains. SafeLabs enforces safe search options in all search results.

Location Privacy Protection
Location is the primary way to expose a child to any form of physical abuse. The predators are looking out for active connections in their vicinity.

SafeLabs VPN hides the true IP address of the users. All others see are the public IP addresses of our VPN servers located around the world.

How it works; Internet Access with VPN

When you connect VPN, it establishes a secure tunnel between you and the SafeLabs or other VPN server hosted somewhere in the Internet. Nobody in between sees which websites or applications are being accessed. You are issued your public IP address by the VPN server instead of your wi-fi router.

When your public IP address is assigned by the VPN server, your location appears as the data center where the VPN server is located not your actual location. For example if you connect to our VPN server in Canada (canada.safelabs.net), you will be assigned the public IP address of our data center in Montreal.

Protect from snooping on untrustworthy wi-fi hotspots

If you are connecting to any public wi-fi like in the café or in hotel or airport, the wi-fi router has access to a lot of information passing between you and Internet. They may be making logs or otherwise looking at your communications.

Stops false alarms in online banking and other applications

When traveling, accessing your online banking from different countries IP addresses is a sure way to trigger security alarms with the banking system and may get your account blocked at the most inconvenient of times. Connecting VPN to a VPN server in your home country is one way to not tell the bank you are traveling. In addition, online banking access is one of the most sought after target for hackers and other eavesdroppers.

Protect yourself from Eavesdroppers

While messages are passing between you and destination computer, any intermediary network can eavesdrop in between not mentioned above.

Child Protection

All above benefit are generic and will be available through any VPN provider.

Child Protection is an extra feature of SafeLabs VPN. It uses VPN technology to provide a child safe Internet access. It is mentioned in detail in the white paper: “SafeLabs; Instructions for Online Child Safety”
