The software is a start-up that was launched in 2008. Mobicip has a safe browser app.[1] Mobicip also has a parental control application for custom configuration and Internet activity reports. Using the web-based application, parents can customize the filter to set up whitelists and blacklists, block categories of websites, and manage users and devices on their account. In addition, the application lets parents monitor the Internet activity on the device, group the activity by user, by allowed or blocked websites, sort by time etc.[2]

History

Mobicip (pronounced mo-be-sip) is named after mobile CIPA. CIPA stands for Children’s Internet Protection Act, a regulation by the US government that mandates secure internet access when provided by public schools or libraries. In the dark days before smartphones and tablets, the founders had a vision that education is going to be transformed by ubiquitous always-on mobile technology in the hands of K-12 students. And so Mobicip was born, with a mission to create and foster the safe use of technology for learning.[3]
