SocialShield Fights CyberBullying With New Features

SocialShield, a startup that helps parents monitor their kids? online behavior without violating kids? privacy, is unveiling a new version of its platform today. SocialShield, which recently raised $10 million in funding, gives parents high level visibility into what kids are doing online and on social networks, and who they?re interacting with online and via mobile phones. SocialShield, which requires that both parents and children opt-in to the service, monitors kids? picture sharing, social gaming and other social activity on networks that kids use the most (currently Facebook, Myspace and Twitter). Rather than giving parents access to kids? accounts or copies of their online communications, Social Shield sends parents alerts when activity indicates potential danger.
