to look for new things (like our IRD numbers)? and secondly what is the
ball park pricing?
I'd like to second this question...having an idea of the pricing
model is critical. There's no point in wasting time if the price
is beyond our means.
To answer the first question first - yes - you can add your own custom searches through "signatures," or even fully compiled and custom-developed modules. Examples include looking for certain types of watermarks in documents, or modules that perform statistical analysis of image files. (See the 'research' portion of our website for more info on that kind of stuff.) Long story short, in the case of IRD numbers, you don't need to add your own custom types since Asarium has built-in support for finding "sensitive" data in over 50 nations, including IRD numbers. :) In terms of price.... We have worked closely with a few Universities to develop a Higher-Ed/research focused license. This license is available *only* to educational institutions and only for a limited amount of time this year. Because it's a 90% discount off the cost to organizations in other markets, I'd rather not publish the actual number on the list. I can tell you the final cost falls somewhere between a credit card purchase and discretionary spending for most every .edu I've spoke with so far -- meaning it is more affordable than other products in this space by a magnitude of about 200x. It includes an unlimited license for the entire Asarium product line. To help maintain the integrity of the list, I will cut the email off here. Please feel free to contact me off list for more information. -Gary Gary Golomb Founder, Managing Partner 443-536-5757 http://www.proventsure.com <http://www.proventsure.com/>
