OTTAWA, July 24, 2012 /CNW/ - Roaring Penguin Software Inc., the email filtering experts, announced that SWITCH (the National Research and Education Network of Switzerland) has selected CanIt-Domain-PRO to combat spam on its networks.  SWITCH plays a key role in Switzerland, both as  as a specialized Internet service provider for the Swiss Universities as well as domain name registration authority for ".ch" and ".li".  SWITCH is a recognized world leader in terms of identity management, high-performance networks and network security.

The non-profit foundation "provides innovative, unique internet services for the Swiss universities and internet users".

"We are pleased to be able to work with Roaring Penguin and to add their CanIt-Domain-PRO anti-spam software to our own security tools in fighting spam for our University clients"  -  Andres Aeschlimann, Project Manager, SWITCH.
