Welcome
The Secure Surfing Organization (SSO) is dedicated to providing tools, tips and sound advice on enjoying your computing experience in a safe, secure and effective way. This service is hosted by Walking Dolphins Consultancy Inc.
We are particularly concerned with the need for parents to provide a safe environment for their children, but also the real need for all of us to have a positive experience -- under our own control and subject to our own choices -- while making use of what should be a wonderful technology for all of us -- the internet.
This site will give you the power to ensure the internet is serving you and not secretly turning you into someone else’s servant. SSO will provide some very direct advice. We are not going to shower you with dozens of options to protect yourself and your children. We are going to direct you to those solutions that we know work. There are articles explaining why and how these tools work. And there is some simple guidance for enjoying your internet experiences in as risk-free a way as possible.
There is free software on this site and paid software. If it is here it is because it is the best in its class.
It is highly recommended that you first refer to the Minimum Safeguards page. Then take some time to browse around the site, find tools, sign up for some of the available services to protect yourself and your family; and perhaps contribute your own best/worst experiences.
