Research: Online Service Provider Assessment Project: Methodology: Technology

Investigate and briefly summarize the technology used by the online service provider for filtering or otherwise restricting access to content. Note any issues related to installation or configuration of the system that may provide opportunities for security pitfalls, as well as any inherent biases built into the technology, such as higher likelihood of blocking web pages that contain more content. Make sure to note any scoring or categorization schemes the filtering technology uses for blocking web sites or keywords. If known, also mention any monitoring or logging capabilities provided or used by the online service provider.

If the online service provider uses a technology provided by another company, mention that fact along with a reference to any document covering assessment of that underlying technology. Make sure to note any evidence of customization of the underlying technology by the online service provider.
