Other Projects

In addition to Web Safety web filter/secure web gateway for Squid proxy we also have some other projects going on. Hopefully these will also be useful to you.

Web Filtering Proxy for Windows

Web Filtering Proxy is a new implementation of web filtering proxy/secure web gateway running natively on Microsoft Windows. It can decrypt HTTPS traffic, filter HTTP requests and responses and inspect contents of HTML pages. The product deployed as a network service in Microsoft Windows and is managed by using Microsoft Management Console.

Just like Web Safety for Linux it is a powerful web filtering server / secure web gateway that is very easy to manage. It contains a lot of content inspection and web filtering modules that help administrator to block file downloads, remove annoying advertisements, prevent access to various categories of the web sites and block resources with explicit content. Integration with Active Directory is very easy in this application.

DNS Safety

DNS Safety filter is a DNS forwarding server (like dnsmasq, unbound, pi-hole) with extensive filtering capabilities. It allows administrator to filter access to domain names by categories, easily block access to user specified domains and provides different access policies for different groups of machines in your network.

DNS Safety is supposed to be deployed as primary DNS server in your local network and can forward DNS requests to your ISP's DNS server, Google Public DNS, OpenDNS and other third party DNS providers. Internal DNS requests can be forwarded to internal DNS servers (for example Active Directory domain controllers).

The filter can be easily managed from full featured Admin UI running in the browser.

Squid for Windows

Squid for Windows is a Microsoft Windows port of Squid 4. Join development efforts at this repo if you are interested.
