Summer vacation is just around the corner!
Solving concerns about children's internet use
Filtering software i-Filter special price promotion

Information security solutions provider Digital Arts, Inc. (headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan; CEO: Toshio Dogu; hereinafter referred to as "Digital Arts"; securities code 2326) is pleased to announce that it began a special price promotion on its home web filtering software i-Filter on July 1.

As we enter summer vacation, many parents may be concerned about their children's internet use. According to a survey by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government ^(*1), the amount of time spent on the internet by youth has increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, more than half of adolescents increased their time on the internet, and issues for the lower grades of elementary school have increased to over double that of other age groups. We also found that rate of smartphone filter use is about 50% for elementary and junior high school students, and less than 40% for high school students.

In response to this situation, Digital Arts will be offering its home web filtering product i-Filter at a special price to new customers who purchase the product between July 1 and September 30.

Using one of the largest filtering databases in Japan, i-Filter boasts a harmful site blocking rate of 96.0% ^(*2) and can be used at home with an easy-to-understand UI and intuitive operation. i-Filter's flexible filter rules and time restrictions are easy to set up and can be used to ensure safe Internet use by children.
