Students and faculty get immediate relief from spam; individual filtering controls to be rolled out in phases.
Denver, Colorado (PRWEB) October 19, 2004 -- Regis University of Denver has deployed Roaring Penguin Softwares CanIt-PRO anti-spam solution to battle e-mail spam on its Denver, Colorado campus. More than 16,000 students at Regis are now having their e-mail filtered for spam and viruses with CanIt-PRO.
Peter Greco, Associate VP for Information Technology Services at Regis, said, We chose Roaring Penguins CanIt-PRO because it provides us with great flexibility. We have currently rolled-out the solution to flag and re-route all probable spam, giving immediate relief to our users. CanIt-PRO allows us to roll-out increasing levels of end-user control, and we are now developing our own filtering templates that will allow users to choose a particular level of filtering that is best suited to them."
Regis extensively tested CanIt-PRO and chose the solution primarily for the level of configuration the product provides. CanIt-PRO enables Regis to create global filtering templates from which users will select their preferred options. In addition, Regis will use CanIt-PRO to give more tech-savvy users the ability to customize their own filters to suit their personal wishes.
The staff at Roaring Penguin clearly understand the business model in higher education," Greco adds. They allowed us to gather the information we needed through our own testing process. We are extremely pleased both with CanIt-PRO as a product and with Roaring Penguin as a company."
CanIt-PRO is ideal for campuses, ISPs and large organizations where global filtering policies must be balanced with individuals ability to have the final decision over what is and is not spam. CanIt products offer the industry's most complete and flexible anti-spam and anti-virus solutions. They can be deployed in any enterprise e-mail environment, including on all Linux and UNIX servers. As a stand-alone gateway appliance, CanIt can protect e-mail environments running non-UNIX servers, such as Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Notes and Novell Groupwise.
