Abstract

From 1st January 2000, Internet Service Providers in Australia have been required to filter web traffic content. The Australian Broadcasting Authority (ABA) publishes a list of banned web sites and ISPs must enforce this ban. Enforcing Internet content regulation is a security issue: ISPs need to be able to verify the authenticity of a distributed banned list, enforcement will most likely be performed by a security component, and enforcement must be integrated with other security functions. This paper examines these issues, and more specifically reviews the modifications required to the TIS http-gw proxy to support Internet content regulation.
