O2 calls this service "O2 Clean Internet" (here), and presents the following benefits:

• protect company computers from all internet threats
• increase employee efficiency by blocking distracting, non-work-related web addresses – settings are controlled through a self-care portal (see screenshot)
• no need to buy expensive devices and software
• maintain control over your security expenses for a fixed monthly fee

    

“ .. there are concerns about security threats such as malware, and the implications of access to the web that a company provides and is responsible for, but cannot exercise control over,” said Oscar Gómez, director of Product and Services at Telefónica O2 Czech Republic. “.. Nokia Siemens Networks was chosen to create a bespoke Internet service that we can offer to enterprises that addresses both security threats and responsible use.”
