The UKSIC Filtering Accreditation evaluates filtering providers against stringent criteria, ensuring they can effectively block harmful content while allowing access to legitimate educational resources. Lightspeed’s continued reliance on a client-based approach for filtering across various devices, including Mac, Windows, Chromebooks, and iPads, has been instrumental in maintaining high standards of online safety.

In addition to its robust filtering technology, Lightspeed is actively updating its Chrome extension to align with Google’s transition to Manifest V3 by mid-2026, ensuring seamless integration for schools. The company has also expanded its content categories to include generative AI and esports, allowing schools to tailor their filtering policies to modern educational needs.

“We are honoured to be re-accredited by the UK Safer Internet Centre,” said Colin McCabe, GM, International at Lightspeed Systems. “This accreditation reflects our ongoing dedication to safeguarding students and empowering educators with the tools they need to create secure and effective learning environments.”
