JackDavidson Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 We are considering moving to Office 365 (from Novell Groupwise but that is a whole other thread!). I was trying to find out how other schools are finding the various compliance tools with regard to safeguarding. I have been looking at the compliance features listed here: Compliance Features in Exchange Online . specifically the Discovery (search across all mailboxes) and Transport Rule features seem to be the most relevant. I am assuming that accessing all users mailboxes is a given. Id be interested to hear whether these are available on the free A2 plan and what other schools using O365 do around safeguarding and content filtering/monitoring. Thanks!
FN-GM Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 You can't do journaling for free. That is the reason we are sticking to a local Exchange server. If you purchase this for every mailbox it get pretty costly!
jamesbmarshall Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 You can't do journaling for free. Yes you can, to an on-prem or third party service. If you want it in the cloud in Exchange Online then it comes under Exchange Online Plan 2. Nothing to stop you using free Exchange Online and journaling out to somewhere else.

Nothing to stop you using free Exchange Online and journaling out to somewhere else. Its pointless moving from Exchange in house if the journalling is on premise. If you use someone else cloud service it will probably have to be paid for so it works out more expensive using 365.

Okay, there's not a tidy UI, but it works.
JackDavidson Posted November 21, 2013 Author Posted November 21, 2013 Is anyone able to confirm whether searching across mailboxes, transport rules (content filtering) and admin access to mailbox content is possible on the free A2 plan? What are schools that are currently on the free plan doing regarding this area? Thanks

the_dude Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 @Edu-IT can you go into more details on how you Journal off to gaps? I'm intrigued....
sukh Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 on o365 create a journal rule to send to a smtp address to Google.
Edu-IT Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 on o365 create a journal rule to send to a smtp address to Google.That's the one. Journal it off to a separate email address you have setup on Google Apps for Education. Job done.
Edu-IT Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 Been looking at this a bit more - following the Google mining post - and it seems you can BCC to a mailbox in your Office 365 tenant so that could do away with the need to use a third party to journal off to. 1
Edu-IT Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Who says? It's the recommended way of working with large archiving companies such as Symantec, as they will poll that mailbox.
Edu-IT Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Step 8 onwards for example. http://techlib.barracuda.com/display/BMAV31/2490395 1
