Kids-friendly security switch to propel network safety practices

SEATTLE - April 10, 2013 - PRLog -- Duvall, Washington --  With the increasing number of kids using the internet, Net 7 Technologies Solutions appeal for heightened information and education for internet and network security for kids.

Recent United States study revealed that the age of people using the internet is getting younger, starting as young as 10 years old on average. Internet is now used by kids both for educational and entertainment purposes.

However, the convenience that internet provides also involve a lot of risks especially for the personal computer security. This is something that kids need to be aware of, as well. Hacking and viruses are just some of the most common and dangerous threats to a network security. With this, it is important for parents to instill safety practices among their kids in using the internet connection.

“We understand that network and internet security can be a really challenging topic to teach kids. It’s often not as easy as browsing the web. It is very important to help them develop a habit of disconnecting from the internet every time they step away from their computer or don’t need to use the internet. Make your kids aware that the chances of a computer being attacked is much higher if the computer is always connected,” says Jon Stevenson of Net 7 Technologies Inc.

Net 7 Technologies is a Washington-based company that is known for its easy-to-use network security switch that kids themselves can safely and readily use. With Net 7 Security Switch, parents and kids can easily turn on and off the connection with just a single click.

Jon Stevenson said that their network security switch product is one of the most convenient ways to raise the awareness of kids about the threats involved in using the internet, and making them more involved in mitigating these threats.

The Network Security Switch can be purchased either from the on-site or online store of Net 7 Technologies at www.net7tech.com .
