Bell Mobility has Deployed Unipier’s Intelligent Policy Management Solution for Parental Control

Nov. 23, 2008 - PRLog -- Netanya, Israel: Unipier announced today that Bell Mobility selected Unipier’s Intelligent Policy Manager (IPM) system to set the guidelines for identifying and filtering content for Bell Parental Control, the company’s enhanced content access control solution that enables parents to control access to adult content that might be inappropriate for children. Bell Parental Control is the first content filtering service in Canada for mobile phones.

The solution is based on Unipier’s Intelligent Policy Manager (IPM) system. The Unipier system offers a context-aware policy creation environment for defining and managing any relevant content access policy. The system applies these policies in real-time over any mobile content, using a leading content classification engine, provided by RuleSpace.

“Bell Parental Control is the first service in Canada that lets parents filter the content accessed through a mobile phone. As use of mobile Internet service grows, we have seen a demand for tools that help our customers manage access to content,” said Adel Bazerghi, Senior Vice President of Products for Bell Mobility. “Using Unipier’s Intelligent Policy Manager system has helped us provide a reliable and secure service to help provide parents with peace of mind concerning what their children are accessing online.”

“We are proud to add our important contribution to the special content access control solution for Bell,” said Gal Nachum, CEO of Unipier. “Unipier’s Intelligent Policy Manager is strategically positioned to manage any relevant service delivery policy and set guidelines that will identify and filter content parents deem inappropriate for their children to access.”
