PRIVACY
NETWORKS OFFERS FREE EMAIL ARCHIVING THROUGH
ITS “STUDENT SAFETY” LICENSE OFFERING PROGRAM
To protect student communications and assist school
district staff members, Privacy Networks’ industry leading
search and archive platform will provide email retention while
reducing costs.
FORT
COLLINS, Colorado. January 29, 2008 – Privacy Networks,
the email solutions company, today announced they have made
their industry leading PrivacyVault solution available for
free for students of subscribing school districts. School
districts have been barraged by an onslaught of management
headaches that arise from the need to archive, search and
retrieve communications that are hosted by the district. The
need to meet open records requests, protect students from
improper email attacks and abuse, and ease of management are
causing school districts to spend large amounts of time and
money to address these burgeoning issues.
Privacy Networks shares the concern that all schools face
in today’s digital world. Email has become an essential
tool in enhancing communications through the educational process.
Now more than ever, administration and faculty rely on the
use of email as a fast, efficient and effective tool for all
facets of the educational process. Typical school districts
have 4 to 5 times as many students as they have faculty and
staff. By offering Privacy Networks licenses free of charge
to those districts that purchase licenses for their faculty
and staff, school districts can now afford to manage the entire
districts’ email archive and search needs. This archive
provides school district officials with a tool to monitor
all student email traffic for appropriate use or concerning
content.
“Using Privacy Networks’ email archive software
has been a tremendous improvement managing the content of
email and responding to requests,” said Keith Ouweneel,
Director of Technology, Weld County School District RE-1,
“We have truly enhanced our ability to serve the students,
faculty, parents and the community.
“At Privacy Networks we are proud to be an essential
and trusted partner to educators and students, We feel it
is our duty to help school districts protect and better manage
the student’s email,” noted Steve Berens, President
and CEO of Privacy Networks. “We are excited to offer
school districts this free of charge offering to bring the
benefits of our software to their entire student base without
the districts incurring additional costs in increasingly tight
budget cycles.”
The majority of organizations critical information is contained
within their email inboxes. School districts are facing the
challenge of retaining, searching and archiving this key digital
asset. Accelerating the need for email archiving are the recent
changes to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCPs) as
well as the expanding State and local regulations regarding
open records. All organizations are now impacted if they cannot
retrieve the content housed within email in a rapid and simple
manner.
Privacy Networks’ products are specifically designed
to support all the major email platforms (Exchange, Domino,
and GroupWise) by simplifying the way email is captured, stored,
indexed and retrieved. As a result, customers are able to
implement a solution quickly and drastically reduce their
costs over time. PrivacyVault is an email archiving solution
that provides users with a simple search engine for all their
email. Finding and retrieving any email or attachment is now
as easy as a search on the Internet. Searches can be performed
for a single PrivacyVault user retrieving their email or an
administrator searching across an entire organization’s
email.
