Keeping your students safe online

The online safety toolkit (optional component) helps to keep your online environment protected by monitoring concerning activity, identifying students at risk, and spotting trends across multiple languages
  • Keyword and phrase monitoring: Powered by over 18,000 phrases in multiple languages, schools can monitor the online safety words that students are typing (even in Microsoft Teams). Triggered events can also be deleted (false-positives for example) with the action recorded as an entry in the Audit Log.
  • Online safety summary reports: Create and send custom (daily/weekly/monthly) phrase match and student concern reports to nominated staff. The email alert contains a link to the portal where the information will be displayed.
  • Updating keywords: Add your own keywords to the online safety database that are relevant to your school and community – and even share them across your district!
  • Keyword cloud: When a keyword or phrase is triggered, it populates a word cloud. This is a great way to spot trending topics.
  • Contextual intelligence-based Risk Index: The context of a triggered event is analyzed (the device used, time of day, websites visited, applications used, history of alerts) and a risk index number is generated, helping staff to determine its severity.
  • Online safety groups: These can be created to deliver focused monitoring of, for example, specific grades or students considered vulnerable. Specific settings can be applied to each group of student devices with alerts being sent to appropriate staff.
  • Student ‘Report a concern’: Students can report their concerns by sending a message in confidence to a trusted member of staff.
  • Online resources: Students have instant access to a range of online support resources – covering topics such as FGM, drug addiction, grooming and bullying. Staff can also manage the pre-populated list and add any additional terms they feel are appropriate.
  • Security: With its easy-to-use access permissions and reports that can be applied or changed as needed, schools can ensure only authorized staff have access to the most sensitive information. Images or screenshots can also be blurred to ensure maximum confidentiality.
