14.2.3. Filter settings
The restrictions placed on Parental Control profiles are based on filters. A Filter
is a collection of criteria used by Parental Control to make a decision on whether
to open a particular website.
Sites can be filtered in several ways:
• Using a white list. In this case, a list of websites that are definitely allowed
is created.
• Using a black list. This method uses a list of blocked websites.
• Using blocked categories. In this case, the contents of websites are
analyzed using keywords that classify them in certain thematic categories.
If the number of words in an unwanted category exceeds the selected
threshold, access to that site will be blocked.
The keyword database is included with Kaspersky Internet Security and is
updated along with the program.
Note: The blocked categories listed is limited to the default list. You
cannot create your own blocked categories.
To edit filter settings for the selected security level:
1. Open the application settings window and select Parental Control
under Protection.
2. Click Customize under Security Level (cf. Figure 71).
3. Edit filter parameters using appropriate tabs in the Profile Settings :
(cf. Figure 72).
To configure the filter for a profile, enter allowed and/or blocked addresses in the
white or black lists respectively and/or specify the blocked categories for website
filtering.
To edit or delete addresses from the white or black lists, use the appropriate
buttons.
To create a list of allowed or blocked addresses, you must enter each address in
the corresponding field in the Adding URL Address Masks window.
