As more iPads and Windows tablets are used nationwide, especially with the extensive initiative of utilizing ICT in the classrooms, mobile usage has entered a new phase. We now see increasing demands on web filtering that is not dependent on a specific browser and more people are voicing their needs to use web filtering in conjunction with applications that has its own web access features.

Enterprises must also adjust to a more flexible working style as more employees take their mobile devices on the go. Mobile devices used outside of corporate boarders, however, can be vulnerable to targeted attacks. For instance, an employee’s device can be infected with malware through public Wi-Fi networks with low security levels. “Data loss as a result of targeted attack” was chosen the number one threat by corporations according to The Top 10 IT Security Threats 2017 issued in January 2017 by IPA. Aside from placing measures to protect the organization itself, toughing security levels on mobile devices taken out of the corporate boarders is also a critical issue that should be addressed.

Under such circumstances, Digital Arts offers two new product lines under its endpoint web security software i-FILTER Browser & Cloud Ver. 4.9. MultiAgent allows users to set web filtering^*1 across all applications on a device, and SecureBrowser is a dedicated browser to control data saved inside the device. Furthermore, with the addition of MultiAgent for iOS and SecureBrowser for Window, this software now supports both iOS and Windows.
