Using high-speed image analysis software, PixAlert Monitor
dynamically
monitors PC screen content across the enterprise. 

PixAlert Auditor examines illegal content stored on PCs,
servers and
removable media. 

"The rapid proliferation of Inappropriate and illegal
material on PCs
and networks is a growing problem for organisations as
legislation and
compliance becomes more onerous," says Dave McLoughlin,
a director at
PixAlert. "While gateway products go some way to
prevent web and email
images, PixAlert is the only solution currently available
that protects
organisations from the increasing range of plug-in digital
devices that
can at as the source of unwanted images."
