Continuing the transition from Postini to Google Apps

Since we acquiredPostini, we've been working toward integrating its security and compliance capabilities directly into Google Apps. In the past two years, we developed and released numerous Postini features directly in Google Apps, such asuser policy management;email content filters; archiving, retention and eDiscovery withGoogle Apps Vault. As we look ahead to 2013, we’ll continue these feature integrations and gradually transition Postini Google Message Security (GMS) and Google Message Discovery (GMD) customers to Google Apps. This will enable them to take advantage of the Postini features built directly into Google Apps that are more flexible, powerful and user-friendly. To learn more, see theannouncement. More information can be found in the Google AppsHelp Center where there are also more details regarding thePostini transition.
