Beagle Dial-Up Security

Beagle Dial-Up Security means you can stop worrying about Internet security. Our innovative proprietary in-house developed technology shields and protects your computer at a network level without requiring you to install and maintain expensive or complicated software. Save money, save the headache and protect yourself No other Internet provider offers this innovative technology created by Beagle Internet right here in Australia.

Our network-based security service provides you the following functions without installing any costly or complex software on your computer:

• Firewall: Prevents 3rd parties from accessing your computer
• Email anti-virus and anti-spam: Prevents contracting of viruses and Trojans via Beagle mailboxes
• Web filtering: Prevents contracting of viruses, spyware and Trojans when surfing HTTP websites

When you connect to the Internet, your computer is placed behind our managed network firewall. You can connect out to the Internet, but the Internet and other Beagle customers are prevented from connecting to your computer. All of your favourite applications will still continue to work while your computer is protected in our virtual environment.

When you browse the Internet using your web browser such as Internet Explorer, Safari or Firefox, our network first checks the files you're downloading for viruses and trojans before sending them to your computer. Please note that extra care must be taken when visiting secure sites as our servers cannot intercept and cleanse secured encrypted traffic for privacy reasons.

If you want to still use your desktop anti-virus software, you can, and it will not conflict with our product as our service is network based and totally transparent. You can also use desktop firewall software without conflict but we do recommend disabling firewall software on your computer as it will be completely superfluous.

You can protect your computer for just an additional $1.95 per month.

Q. Are there any limitations?

Yes, for privacy and legal reasons, our service cannot filter any encrypted traffic such as HTTPS or SSL. Extra care must be taken when visiting secure sites. Files downloaded from means other than standard web browsing such as FTP, instant messaging, file sharing or physical media such as USB sticks or CD-ROMs cannot be checked for viruses.

Q. Will the security service slow down my connection?

No, the security service occurs within our network and does not slow down your service. If anything, the security service can improve your overall Internet experience by providing frequently used websites more quickly to your computer and reducing attacks or probes on your computer which can consume your Internet bandwidth.
