There is a great amount of freedom and empowerment that comes with being online. There is also a certain amount of risk and danger. Knowing the content I have come across from time to time, and knowing how easy it can be for someone to be tricked online – well, those two things are enough to give parents great pause when the time comes to let their child go online. Obviously we worry about things like bullying, stalking and inappropriate and explicit content and search for solutions that will help us. eKAVACH seeks to be one of those solutions.

eKAVACH is a relatively new digital parenting application. Kavach in Indian language means a shield. It was designed by a parent, with a parent’s requirements to shield their child from online harm in mind. The purpose of eKAVACH is to offer families comprehensive safety in the online world, as well as provide parental supervision and control over a child’s activities across various digital media platforms.

eKAVACH has two parts – one is an app for the parent’s phone and the other is an app for for the child’s device. Both of the apps need to be installed in order for eKAVACH to work properly. The parent’s app is where you handle all of the settings.

You can monitor how much time your child is spending online, and set a limit on the amount of screen time the child gets per day. This will help ensure that your child isn’t up all night surfing the internet, instead of getting an appropriate amount of rest

Want to ensure your child focuses on important things like study time or family gathers? You can define blocks of family time where access to the internet as well as apps will be blocked.

The parent can also enable content filtering according to the child’s age and likes. You determine what websites, games and other applications are suitable. You can allow or prevent access to websites, including social networks such as Facebook. If a child attempts to access content that you have deemed inappropriate then you will receive an alert in real-time. If there is no internet connection available you can receive the notifications by text message.

The eKAVACH parental app gives you the access at all times. If you’re at work or traveling you can still have a feeling of security knowing your child is where they are supposed to be by seeing their geographical location. Heartbeat monitoring is also available.

Children can message the parent at any time as long as they have an internet connection. If the child feels that they are in danger they can send an SOS message to you the parent, which will contain their location. This could be really useful for children that wander.

The eKAVACH application helps provide parents with a peace of mind. It also makes for a useful tool to help teach a child about technology in a way that they can enjoy the benefits as well as learn respect for possible dangers.

Here’s a brief video that explains the app a bit better.
