How does Online Defense work on Plume Home?

The Online Defense feature will protect your devices from malware sites, botnets, spyware, spam, phishing, keyloggers, monitoring, proxy avoidance, anonymizer, and other harmful attacks on your network.

How do I turn on Online Defense?

The feature is enabled on all devices by default, but can be customized on the device or person level for an individualized experience. When this is enabled for a person, the Online Defense feature will automatically be turned on across all the devices assigned to that person. 

Online Defense is controlled at the Network level in the Security settings, while device and person settings can be modified from within their respective detail screens.  

What is the experience when attempting to access a blocked site?

Our security feature restricts content whenever you see the “Access to this website is blocked” message displayed in the browser window (this only appears for HTTP sites; HTTPS sites prevent this and display the browser's default "can't be reached" message).
