Regis University Offers Flexible E-Mail Filtering with Roaring Penguin Software’s CanIt-PRO
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 Software’s 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 Penguin’s 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.
A trial version of
CanIt or CanIt-PRO can be obtained at http://www.roaringpenguin.com/anti_spam/get_canit_request.php.
