The company said that it can block these activities in real-time by leveraging Airtel's network security apparatus for all devices connected to the Airtel Xstream Fiber, through Wi-Fi.
"We, at Airtel, are obsessed with making digital experiences for our customers better and safer through innovation. Work and children's studies have all gone online with the pandemic," Shashwat Sharma, Chief Marketing Officer, Bharti Airtel, said in a statement.
"Along with the speed and reliability of broadband, security is now a key requirement for customers. Secure Internet is an easy to activate and highly effective solution for making the internet, safer for our customers," Sharma added.
'Secure Internet' offers multiple security modes for varying customer needs, from remote working to online classes.
With its Child Safe and Study Modes, customers can block websites and applications with unwanted, adult/graphic content not suitable for children.
