The designation scheme, which launched in July 2014, was developed by the UK Council for
Child Internet Safety (UKCCIS) with support by the government and
is administered by trade organization RDI. The accreditation,
designated by the scheme's official logo (attached), verifies that
CYREN's cyber security solutions block known pornography and child
abuse websites for public WiFi deployments.
CYREN partners and users can now offer the third-party
designation as additional assurance that CYREN is committed to
enabling safe WiFi experiences for children and families where its
technology is relied upon in public areas. Several WiFi providers
and channel partners already depend on CYREN cyber security
solutions to protect thousands of public WiFi installations in UK
hotels, schools, sport arenas, universities and various other types
of public areas.
"We are delighted to welcome on board CYREN, a leading Internet
security technology company dedicated to the ongoing challenges of
keeping the internet safe," said Beverley
Smith, Director at RDI. "Partnering with CYREN will help to
increase our reach of Friendly WiFi by working closely together to
promote the Friendly WiFi scheme to their customers. Having CYREN
as an accredited provider is great news for the RDI. By working
with CYREN we are able to give access to their fantastic solutions
to both venues and providers of WiFi services. Both companies are
committed to providing a reputable and robust solution for keeping
children and young people safe online."
"CYREN is pleased to join a program such as Friendly WiFi that
consistently emphasizes and reinforces the importance of offering
safe Internet use for children," said Lior
Samuelson, CEO and Chairman of the Board at CYREN. "We're
proud that CYREN's innovative, time-tested URL filtering
technologies can help provide peace of mind for families on the
go."
