    • Instantly protects all devices from threat-ware: phishing, malware, ransomware, and virus command-and-control sites
    • Pause Internet access to any device, user or group if needed
    • Temporarily quarantine any new device joining the network
    • Site-wide DNS over HTTPS resolver
    • Root-level DNS includes DNSSEC validation
    • Island’s DNS resolver automatically prevents redirection to unauthenticated sites, or “man-in-the-middle” attacks
    • Island hardware and software created and manufactured in the United States adds an extra layer of security

  • • Instantly view what’s going on, including critical alerts, online users, and traffic volume
    • See all devices that are connected to your Island, wired and wireless
    • Optionally be notified when devices join or leave the network
    • New devices that join the network are automatically assigned an icon for the device-type using a fingerprinting process
    • Extensive filtering options accommodate parental controls, guest and employee access
    • Without PIN access to the app, filtering cannot be circumvented without shutting off access to the Internet completely
    • Content filtering can be applied quickly to any user, device, or group, by using pre-configured templates (visually, 1 to 3 umbrellas)
    • Set up custom profiles to allow/block specific categories or lists
    • Schedule Internet access by device, user, or group to days and times you choose
    • Island uses a premiere URL database that is automatically updated every few minutes
    • A significant portion of the URL database resides locally within Island, making filter look-ups very fast
    • Access to any site not known locally queries the cloud database and is then cached locally for subsequent fast access
    • Prioritize alerts for specific devices, users, and groups upon specific events by assigning red-flag status
    • Tailor alerts based on individual device status, changes to status, time online, or traffic volume
    • View bandwidth usage by individual devices and in aggregate
    • View analytics per device
    • See activity by past 10 minutes, 24 hours, or week
    • Can exclude devices from activity monitoring with “do not log” setting in the app
