Family-friendly internet that is safe on every device
WebShield Protect filters your family's internet on your connection, so every phone, tablet, TV and console is protected the moment it connects. Nothing to install, and no controls a child can switch off on the device.
Add WebShield Protect filtering when you sign up. Already with us? Add it from your account.
You cannot watch every screen
The filter you set on one device does not cover the tablet, the console or a hand-me-down phone, and controls that live in an app get switched off or worked around. WebShield Protect moves the protection off the devices and onto your connection, so it covers the whole home and holds.
Safe on every device
Protection runs on your connection, so phones, tablets, TVs, consoles and computers are covered automatically. There is nothing to install on each one.
Controls that hold
Because the filtering sits on your connection, not in an app on the device, there is no toggle on the device to switch it off.
Set and forget
Filtering updates in the cloud, and Google SafeSearch stays enforced, without you lifting a finger.
What WebShield Protect does for your family
Published protections, working together on your connection to keep the family's online space safer.
Google SafeSearch enforced
Search results stay filtered, even when a child changes the setting on their own device.
Anti-Cyberbullying
Reduces access to the harmful platforms behind a lot of online bullying, helping keep the family's online space safer.
Phishing Defence
Deceptive and scam sites are blocked before anyone in the house can open the link, protecting personal information.
Focus on Children
Filtering built with the younger members of the family in mind, across every device on the connection.
Device-Wide Protection
Every device, every connection, always protected, with nothing to install per machine.
Cloud-Based Updates
The filter updates itself in the cloud against current-day threats, so it stays current on its own.
Custom Profiles
Personalise the web experience for your household.
Three steps to a safer home connection
Choose your NBN plan and add WebShield Protect
Pick your plan and add filtering when you sign up.
Filtering activates on your connection
Protection switches on at the network level, no hardware and no app.
Every device at home is protected
Phones, tablets, TVs and consoles are covered automatically, and the filter keeps itself updated.
Protection at the source, not on the device
WebShield is an Australian-owned internet provider that has championed online safety for over two decades. Because the filtering runs on your connection, it protects every device in the house and cannot be uninstalled from a phone or tablet.
Family Safe Internet questions
Does it slow the internet down?
No. Filtering runs on your connection and is built to work in the background without slowing your browsing.
Do I have to install anything on the kids' devices?
No. It works on your connection, so there is nothing to install on each phone, tablet or console.
Can my teenager just turn it off?
No. The filtering sits on your connection, not in an app on the device, so there is no switch on the device to turn it off.
Does it work on the smart TV and the game console?
Yes. Anything that connects to your home internet is covered.
Does it enforce SafeSearch?
Yes. Google SafeSearch stays enforced across the connection.
