Polk County Public Schools, a large district with over 106,000 students, faced the challenge of quickly deploying CIPA-compliant web filtering for 23,000 school-owned devices sent home for remote learning. They needed a reliable cloud-based solution to protect students online regardless of location and turned to vendor Lightspeed Systems and its product, Lightspeed Filter™.

Lightspeed Systems implemented its Filter™ solution, which was deployed and fully operational in under two days. The results were immediate, providing the district with complete filtering, detailed reporting on student web activity, and the ability to track devices. The rapid implementation and flexible policy management solved the district's filtering challenges, with an administrator calling Lightspeed a "lifesaver."
