Education

1:1 Laptop Initiatives

To better prepare students for 21st century skills many schools offer portable education in the form of laptop computers that students can take home. Internet-assisted learning now extends beyond the classroom and into student's homes, providing more resources and better teacher-student communication. However, most IT staff and administrators do not have a comprehensive and cost effective solution to enforce Acceptable Use Policies and ensure safe web surfing with 1:1 programs.

To address these urgent needs M86 Security has developed the 8e6 Mobile Client to filter and secure students off-site from accessing inappropriate and malicious Web content. As a software-based application that works in conjunction with the 8e6 R3000 Mobile solution, it's simple to deploy and manage. The 8e6 Mobile Client provides total filtering for your laptops and students regardless of their Internet connection.
