Family Cyber Alert

Family Cyber Alert is a lightweight Windows application designed specifically for helping you monitor your children's activity on your computer and send reports via email.

When run for the first time, the utility asks you to set up a master password, so other users cannot access or modify your settings, or uninstall the program.

Looks may not be quite impressive, as you are welcomed by a plain and straightforward UI that categorizes the monitoring functions into different panels. You can check the visited websites, used applications, keystrokes, screenshots, accessed files, and chat conversations.

Depending on the desired monitoring process, the tool provides extra information about it, such as user, start and end time, used time, filename, chat text, and other details.

Family Cyber Alert gives you the possibility to filter the results by user and date. You may print data, save it to a file, or send it via email, refresh the information with just one click, and generate a slideshow using the snapshots.

A smart function (“Real-Time Watch”) bundled in this tool enables you to automatically monitor user-defined keys, block custom applications and websites, and send email notifications. Plus, you can exclude the specified users from the process.

What’s more, you are allowed to log off, shut down, or restart the computer at a user-defined date and time (you can make use of the built-in calendar for scheduling the task), export the snapshots taken during a certain period of time to AVI file format, and use hotkeys.

The tool embeds plenty of dedicated parameters that can be tweaked in order to help you change the password, specify the saving directory, hide the program from the Task Manager and log data, disable the monitoring options (e.g. websites, screenshots), specify your email address, enter a delay time for the slideshow, as well as take screenshots at a certain time and automatically delete them after a custom time.

Family Cyber Alert offers some handy features for helping you check out your children’s activity on your computer, and is suitable for rookies and professionals alike.
