Optenet and Allot Team on Integrated DPI/Parental Control

   

A year ago I covered Opetenet's deployment at Vodafone Turkey (here), enabling web filtering services with Allot Communications' DPI gear.

This has turned now into a strategic alliance.

Optenet announced "a new strategic alliance with Allot [that] ..   will allow both organizations to offer operators a network intelligent solution which acts as a centralized policy enforcement point .. enabling a feature-rich parental control solution ..  known as the Allot-Optenet Parental Control Solution, fully ensures that a broad range of home and mobile devices have secure and controlled browsing helping to make the Internet safe for children. It gives service providers a set of real-time tools to develop a comprehensive package that allows parents to monitor their children’s Internet activity and take actions by blocking unwanted access or limit usage during pre-determined periods".

  

The solution (see top chart) is built on Allot's Service Gateway and Optenet's MIDAS (Multicontent Inspection and Dynamic Analysis System) products:
