Why Monitor & Archive? Violent Behavior Cyber-bullying & Harassment 42% of teenagers with tech access cyber-bullied Cyber-bullying & Harassment Dangerous Situations 1 in 3 kids have been threatened online Violent Behavior 3 million children are absent because of bullying Inappropriate, malicious or harmful content Let’s start by talking about why you should monitor and archive email, social media and internet traffic: The threats to your students and school are real and ever-increasing. Some of these threats include: Cyber-bullying and harassment. Here are some findings from a recent survey: 42% of teenagers with tech access report being cyberbullied over the past year One in three kids have been threatened online Three million children are absent from school each month because of bullying Inappropriate, malicious or harmful content Violent or dangerous incidents © GWAVA Inc, Confidential & Proprietary
Regulation Compliance FINRA, SEC, MiFID, FSA Archiving Regulations FRCP HIPAA, HITECH Various State Laws Freedom of Information Act Sunshine Laws FERPA Now, let’s begin by talking about why you need to archive. There are the specific government regulations that are specific to educational organizations that apply to archiving electronic communications. You need to be sure that you understand and comply with these regulations. Failure to do so can lead to litigation, fines and sanctions. These regulations include: Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) Freedom of Information Act State Sunshine Laws © GWAVA Inc, Confidential & Proprietary
Statistics The Enterprise Strategy Group has found that 46% of organizations have had an eDiscovery request in the past 12 months. 46%! © GWAVA Inc, Confidential & Proprietary
Statistics Furthermore, 75% of global companies will have to produce messages for eDiscovery by the end of this year. If your school has not had to deal with eDiscovery, it is more than likely that you will sooner rather than later. © GWAVA Inc, Confidential & Proprietary
In 2008, Michael Osterman predicted, “it’s not a matter of IF, but WHEN.” eDiscovery and electronic communications litigation is inevitably coming to your organization In 2008, Michael Osterman of Osterman Research predicted, “it’s not a matter of If, but when.” From his research about the legal email archiving trend, Osterman has concluded that eDiscovery and email litigation is inevitably coming to your business. © GWAVA Inc, Confidential & Proprietary
The Real Costs Archiving is no longer a COST of doing business… …but a cost SAVINGS With these stats, case studies and regulations, it is apparent that archiving is about saving the costs associated with litigation and eDiscovery. Not only that, but archiving helps ensure that your day to day business communications are preserved and that you comply with regulations to avoid penalties, fines and sanctions. © GWAVA Inc, Confidential & Proprietary
Demand for Archiving NICE to Have NEED to Have MUST Have NICE to Have Email Archiving NICE to Have NEED to Have MUST Have Communications Archiving NICE to Have NEED to Have MUST Have Archiving has always been beneficial in organizations. For decades, lawsuits and other legal actions have made it imperative for companies to be able to retrieve email. Archiving email has dramatically evolved over the past few years. With recent laws and regulations, email archiving has gone from a ‘nice to have’, to a ‘need to have’, to a ‘must have’. And now it’s expanded beyond email. HIPPA regulations, Sarbannes-Oxley requirements, FINRA, HITECH and many other protocols demand that ALL communications data be archived and immediately accessible; otherwise, fines, penalties and heavy sanctions are levied. © GWAVA Inc, Confidential & Proprietary
Proactive vs. Reactive Archiving is essential Maintain a record of past occurrences Monitoring and filtering can prevent situations Now we have touched a lot on the need for archiving and why it is essential to help ensure that your school: complies with regulations; prepares for potential litigation; and, helps you reduce the costs associated with that litigation. But really, the point of archiving is all about protecting your students and school. The archive gives you a record of what has happened and can help you if any number of situations have occurred, whether that is bullying, harassment, violence, cheating, etc. Now, to prevent situations from ever occurring, you must be monitoring! Let’s take a few minutes to talk about the need for monitoring social media & email communications as well as internet traffic. In other words, using a proactive, instead of a reactive approach to protect your students and school. © GWAVA Inc, Confidential & Proprietary
Threats to Your School 7.4% of high school students threatened or injured with a weapon 12% reported physical fights at school 8% of teachers threatened by students 1-2% homicide rate at US schools 7.4% of high school students that reported being threatened or injured with a weapon at school at least once in the last year, as of 2011 Only 7.4 percent? That may not seem like much until you realize that’s one in 13 kids. The report rate for high school injuries and threats involving weapons has hovered around 8 percent since 1993. 12% of high school students who reported being in a physical fight on school property at least once in the last 12 months, as of 2011 8.1% of public teachers who reported a student threatened to injure them during the 2007-2008 school year Of the millions of students who attend public schools every year, 17 were killed during the 2009-2010 school year. The proportion of youth homicides occurring at school has held steady at around 1 to 2 percent since the 1992-1993 school year. These threats are real! Things can happen, we must reduce or even stop this violence in schools.
