Guardian Eye: Hoslitic Parental Control Solution

In today’s world of technology, accessing the web requires just a few clicks. Anyone with a decent internet connection can easily browse the web and access any type of content. In such scenarios, it is important to safeguard the online activities of the children. As children can access any content very easily, which can be good or bad, monitoring the online behavior of the children helps parents make sure that their children are watching the appropriate content and are not having any negative effects on their mental state. As article [12] [13] [14] shows that kids having excessive mobile phones and social media usage may face mental issues and other sever health issues. Only monitoring might not be able to solve this issue completely. There is a need for active content blocking, through which children will not have access to inappropriate content in the first place, and limiting the time spent on the internet is important from a parent’s point of view. To solve this issue, we have come up with Guardian Eye. Guardian Eye is a holistic parental control system. With the help of Guardian Eye, parents can not only keep track of their children’s online activity but also dig deep into the online behavior of the children. Guardian Eye provides parents with in-depth monitoring of children’s online activities across the internet. Content filtering and blocking is also one of the main features where parents can block or filter any type of content that they think might not be appropriate for their children. Parents can also manage the time spent by children on the internet by limiting it. Parents will be provided with a dashboard where they will have access to detailed reports of children’s Internet usage and behavioral analysis of the children. Guarding Eye is a network-based solution based on a proxy server, so all the requests from children’s devices will go through the proxy server, and based on the type of request and rules created by the parent, appropriate action will be taken. Guardian Eye consists of three main systems: the first is a proxy server for intercepting the request; the second is the parent dashboard for reporting; and the third is a mobile application to redirect all the outgoing requests to the proxy server. Overall, Guardian Eye offers a comprehensive solution to parents to ensure safe and clean access for their children.
