In this past period, the activities of the Professional Advisory Headquarters under the leadership of the Rabbinical Committee to Fortify Religion have provided professional consultation for international hi-tech companies with operate branches in Israel and are interested in enabling groups with chareidi employees to install halachically proper computer screening.

These companies encounter complexities in installing such screening due the severe demands for security for their vital and secret data. After many talks and meetings with the companies and the top professionals of Moked Hayi'utz in which several technological solutions were presented, and after thorough examinations on the part of the companies, a proper screening system had now been installed on the workers' computers.

The unique solutions which the experts of Moked Hayi'utz Advisory Center, even in extremely complex situations, have developed, have served in companies such as Intel, Rafael, HP, Yad-2, the Development team of the Israeli Police Force, Bituach Leumi, government offices, local government authorities and hundreds of additional companies whereby the Moked Hayi'utz has helped tens of thousands of employees.

The Moked Hayi'utz was establish about five years ago by the Rabbinical Committee to Safeguard Religion, with the encouragement and guidance of gedolei Yisroel. A letter publicized by the members of Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah stated: "Recently a guidance headquarters has been established by the Vaad HaRabbonim whereby professionals try to direct employees in their workplaces how to block the Internet with a proper halachic screening, and many have indeed been helped by them."
