E-Kavach : Digital shield for your children’s safety

Internet and technology has made the world small but it has also brought the dangers of the world closer home. You don’t know who is contacting your child on social media. Even if nothing looks amiss, there have been many incidents of identity thefts, misuse of pictures and what not. We don’t know what a child is browsing, which gaming portals he is accessing. Let us admit, for a parent, it is a scary world out there.

 

 

   

A few weeks back, I heard a strange but true story in one of the online mommy groups. One teenage child was suddenly found dead. There seemed to be no reason behind it. But it was found that the girl and her friends were playing some online horror game which caused them to attempt some dare, leaving the girl dead and few others injured. These are sketchy details, but I was really shocked to know there are applications like this, freely available for children to try. The dangers of online world are very real and parents have to be proactive in these times to protect their children.

 

How can one protect our children from the dangers of the digital world?

Though it is not possible to check the usage of mobile completely, knowing what the children are accessing and who they are connecting with can help parents proactively monitor the children’s online activity. In this scenario, an app like eKavach is God-sent.

It allows the children the freedom that they need without constant interference, but also provides parents the peace of mind because they know children are browsing in a safe environment and within the limits defined by them.
