OX Abuse Shield
New features with v2.4.1

Dynamic Management of Siblings via Lua functions
Before this release, siblings could only be defined as part of the startup configuration; there was no way to add or remove siblings dynamically while wforce was running. With this release all sibling management functions in Lua can be used from the console to add/remove siblings at runtime. In addition, per-sibling encryption keys can optionally be specified.
Dynamic Management of Siblings via REST API
New REST API endpoints enable siblings to be managed dynamically.
Optional Per-Sibling Encryption Keys
All the methods of managing siblings (Lua or REST API) enable per-sibling encryption keys to be set. Encryption keys are are 32-byte strings that are Base-64 encoded before passing to the sibling management functions or REST API.

OX Protect
New features with v2.0

Security Dashboard for Users
OX Protect 2.0 comes with a security dashboard that allows users to view reports that show the security status of their network and the connected devices. It informs about blocked attempts to access filtered content, potentially malware-infected devices, and more. Security reports can be viewed over a time period ranging from one to thirty days.
Enhanced Notifications and Event Aggregation
The new version provides a simpler way of displaying, consolidating, and acting on real-time notifications about events such as attempts to visit blacklisted webpages, blocked phishing attacks, and more.
Homework Time
Homework time provides a feature whereby a more restrictive set of filtering rules can be applied during certain times, for example, to support children doing their homework and removing distractions such as messaging apps or video streaming. This can be done on a per-profile basis so different family members can have different homework times and settings.
