New iBoss Home Gives Budget-Savvy Parents Complete Control of Wireless Home Networks

All-in-One Security Solution Filters Content and Protects Against Online Predators

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 28, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Parents searching for an affordable, all-in-one security system to monitor and control their children's Internet use across the entire home network need look no further than the new iBoss Home Parental Control Wi-Fi router and firewall. Based on Phantom Technologies' proven iBoss filtering technology, the iBoss Home is the first product on the market to combine a Wi-Fi router and firewall with filtering capabilities to monitor all devices on the home network, allowing parents to control online activity from desktops, laptops, PDAs, and game consoles without having to install local software on each device.

With more than 50,000 sexual predators now prowling the Internet as revealed in an MSNBC report, the stakes for monitoring a child's Internet activity have risen well beyond limiting access to adult content. According to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, Crimes Against Children Research Center, "More than three-quarters of the unwanted exposures (79 percent) happened at home," and "69 percent of teens regularly receive personal messages online from people they don't know and most of them don't tell a trusted adult about it."

With the iBoss Home, parents can not only limit access to specific Web sites or categories of Web sites, but they can schedule, monitor, and even prevent all other Internet activities, including chats, game playing, and instant messaging whether it is through a computer, portable device, or Xbox or PlayStation game console. And unlike software programs that children can learn how to disable, the iBoss Home is difficult to circumvent because once disconnected, the network loses its Internet connection. As a single piece of hardware, the iBoss Home also reduces network clutter while replacing the cost of separately purchasing a router, firewall, parental control and filtering device.

Since it was first introduced by Phantom Technologies two years ago, the iBoss's revolutionary filtering technology has become the trusted means for protecting home networks against a host of online threats by over 50,000 homes and businesses. It has been endorsed by many of its users, including the leading tech guru Leo Laporte of G4TechTV. The iBoss technology was developed by a network of security experts with over 50 years of combined engineering experience who wanted to bring the same level of security used by Fortune 500 companies to the home market.

The iBoss Home can be purchased directly from Phantom Technologies at www.iphantom.com or one of its value-added resellers.
