NetSTAR’s inCompass® Web-Filtering SDK leverages our proprietary technology bringing four layers of web filtering and categorization together to provide the logical next step in web and URL categorization space for the OEM developer market.
Unique in the industry, inCompass has proven it is extremely easy to integrate and deploy rapidly across all major OS systems used by developers.
Large web sites can have thousands, or even tens of thousands, of unique pages, and sites like CNN often have over 300 links on the front page alone. Dynamically generated and social media sites can have an infinite number of pages with ever-changing content, topics, as well as a nearly infinite number of possible malware exploits and security risk embedded or pulled in through a mashup that is social media.
New sites and pages are added to the internet every day, with some projections from IDC suggesting that there are over 30,000 new URLs registered on a daily basis just for pornography sites along.
Traditional categorization and blocking technologies can not keep up with the churn of new, old, or malware sites, and without an OEM partner, it is extremely hard to stay current. For example, just the Alexa top 1 Million experiences an average 5,000 to 10,000 domain changes (on and off) on a daily basis many of which are new, high traffic, and can be short-lived.
This “how do we keep up” question, is often the deciding factor in the build it or buy it decision process, but understanding “how will my partner keep up” when you acquire an OEM partner is central to partnering with a high-quality solution provider.
We’ve been categorizing websites since 2001, we know the web. NetSTAR has the engineers and our abilities to keep the database fresh is why NetSTAR’s inCompass Web Filtering and Categorization SDK is of a higher quality than any other web filtering and URL security solution on the market today and why it is preferred by over 100 OEM in diverse markets. Well, there is also our fabulous partner support.
