Protect your home network with this CUJO Smart Internet Firewall, made in the USA. Mobile apps let you control your firewall's settings as it protects networked devices and smart doorbells, cameras, and thermostats against hackers. Plug this CUJO Smart Internet Firewall into your router to set up parental controls and protect your online privacy.
Pause The Internet:
This is great for if and when you find your children going to a site that you are not comfortable with. Or for when they may be grounded. They won't be able to sneak off and get on their tablet or phone without your knowledge.
With all the hacks going on and viruses infiltrating the internet, you need something that will not only protect but something easy you can manage yourself. You want to keep your children protected from online predictors and bullies.
The CUJO has all the features you need and the control that you want.
CUJO is a smart firewall for the connected home, designed to bring business-level security to the home network. This one device will secure all devices connecting to the WiFi router. CUJO detects and blocks malicious sites, viruses, and hacks. Think of it like antivirus for your entire network. Plus, CUJO lets you control what your kids access online and keep them safe.
The CUJO device is fairly easy to set up. All you have to do is download the app from the Appstore or Google Play Store, follow the step by step instructions on the app and VIOLA! You're secured.
I personally had a bit of an issue with the set-up, not because the app or setup was hard but my router didn't have the information that the app needed in order to finish setup. While in the process of setting the device up to my router, a tech from CUJO called to let me know that they were there to help with setup. I couldn't believe it...THEY called me. Now what other companies do you know, that will take the time to call a new customer to help? Normally I would have to call a 1-800 number and wait on hold for hours. Not with CUJO! They are definitely on the ball with their customer service department! The man on the phone did the rest of the setup for me and in minutes my CUJO Smart Firewall device was working.
So what can you expect with the CUJO Smart Firewall?
Business Level Internet Security:
With CUJO, your entire internet is protected from hacks, Malware and viruses fast and effectively and send alerts right to the app. It blocks any attack on your internet devices, saving you from an expensive trip to the computer repair or having to replace the system entirely.
Guards All Devices:
Anything you have hooked into Wi-Fi, it will protect. This includes those fancy doorbells and even baby monitors that you have connected.
Parental Controls:

Parental Controls:
- You get complete control over the devices hooked up to your Wi-Fi. The parental control features let you set internet filters so you know that your children can't go to any websites that may be infected with malware or viruses. Or for those not so children friendly, adult sites.
- You can also monitor social media sites your children visit. Keeping them safe from viruses that can be shared through messenger or other malware sites that are shared over these platforms.
Pause The Internet:
Other great features include:
You get complete remote administration access and can create user profiles to group devices to the people in your home.Everything is reported right to the app. It alerts you every time there is an attempted breach and blocks it so there is no chance of it getting through to your devices.
My final thoughts after using the CUJO Smart Firewall for just a short time is that I don't know how I lived without this before. It has blocked so much Malware and Spyware that I can't even imagine what would happen if I had continued to let it through. The $250 price tag for this device is well worth every penny. It's so much cheaper than having to replace all the computers and cell phones in the house by far.
The customer service is beyond superb and they go out of their way to make sure you have everything set up and ready to go. They are extremely friendly and knowledgeable about everything that goes into making CUJO work! You can purchase yours HERE!

I've considered purchasing firewall protection and I'm still undecided. Thank you for the insight of this review, you've given me information that I can base my search on and have made it convenient to purchase this one if I choose to.
