Abstract
A method of and system for controlling access to the Internet by members of an organization that includes at least one supervisor and at least one non-supervisor for which limited Internet access is desired. The system maintains for each member of the organization a session identifier. When the system establishes an Internet session between a member of the organization and the Internet, the system initially sets a user session identifier for said Internet session to a default session identifier, which is the session identifier for the lowest access level member of the organization. When the member requests a resource, the system determines if an access level rating for requested resource is greater than the value of the access level field of the user session identifier. If so, the system blocks the resource and presents member with choices of logging on to the system as a specific member of the organization with a higher access level, or appealing the blocking to a supervisor.
