__SPAM Overview__ __:__ In 2004, TIS installed a centralized Anti-Spam detection system named "Barracuda", due to the overwhelming number of Spam emails entering into the District. This system has already proven to be quite effective, but does miss the detection of Spam emails from time to time.

On average, over 30,000 emails enter our District daily, 90% of them or 27,000 are blocked, and the remaining 3,000 are sent through to your mailboxes.

__Internet Filtering Overview:__ In June of 2007, TIS installed a product called 8e6 as a means to provide ACSD with high quality Internet content filtering. Even though this box is very effective in blocking access to inappropriate content and websites, supervising of students while accessing the internet is still required. On-going adjustments to this system are always occurring due to the nature of the ever evolving Internet. If a __previously approved__ website has now been blocked by 8e6, please email Mike Wheatley at mwheatley@acsd.k12.ca.us with a request to unblock it. Note: New requests to unblock a website (not previously approved) still go through the Technology Leadership Committee for approval. Contact Jeremy Davis or obtain a [|Website Evaluation Form] from DocuShare to fill out and send in.
