Abstract: Disclosed is a system and a method for monitoring a subject's activity on a global communications network such as the Internet (107). The system comprises a client monitoring module (110) and an enterprise server (102) accessible over the global communications network by the client monitoring module (110). The client monitoring module (110) is established in the Windows Socket Layer (417) of the operating system of the subject's digital computer (108). The enterprise (102) is provided with a database of content (104) available on the network and corresponding topical categories of the content. Artificial intelligence is also provided to categorize on-the-fly content which is not present in the database (104). The method involves a supervisor establishing (526) an account and providing (524) a usage policy for each subject.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and a method for monitoring a subject's activity on a global communications network such as the Internet. The system comprises a client monitoring module and an enterprise server accessible over the global communications network by the client monitoring module. The client monitoring module is established in the Windows Socket Layer of the operating system of the subject's digital computer. The enterprise server is provided with a database of content available on the network and corresponding topical categories of the content. Artificial intelligence is also provided to categorize on-the-fly content which is not present in the database. The method involves a supervisor establishing an account and providing a usage policy for each subject. Subsequently, when a subject requests content from the global communications network, a copy of the request is routed over the global communications network to the enterprise server.
