Appl. No.:

09/953374

Inventors:

Jeffery Smith - Draper UT, US
Robert Head - Sandy UT, US
Kevin Plumb - Sandy UT, US
John Moss - Sandy UT, US

International Classification:

G06F011/30

US Classification:

713/201000

Abstract:

Disclosed is a system and a method for monitoring a subject's activity on a global communications network such as the Internet. The system comprises a client monitoring module and an enterprise server accessible over the global communications network by the client monitoring module. The client monitoring module is established in the Windows Socket Layer of the operating system of the subject's digital computer. The enterprise server is provided with a database of content available on the network and corresponding topical categories of the content. Artificial intelligence is also provided to categorize on-the-fly content which is not present in the database. The method involves a supervisor establishing an account and providing a usage policy for each subject. Subsequently, when a subject requests content from the global communications network, a copy of the request is routed over the global communications network to the enterprise server. The enterprise server then determines the content type and transmits a code with the content type back to the client station which either allows or disallows the receipt of the requested content according to the subject's usage policy. Reports are also generated by the enterprise server and are periodically transmitted to the supervisor summarizing content requests made by the relevant subjects.
