General Requirements
Separate account for admins and end users
It is important that in any computer where WebFilter would be installed, there would be at least, two accounts. One account should be the administrator (accountability partner). This account should be secured with a strong password that is not easy to reproduce. You can use the following password generator to create one: https://strongpasswordgenerator.com/.
The second account should be a "Managed with Parental Controls" account, which is be used by the end user (person or child using WebFilter). The following guide shows you how to do that in MacOs.
