ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a system for monitoring and maintaining an acceptable use policy for network communications. Such communications are monitored, stored and searched for the presence of preselected regular expressions, either by subject category or by keywords. The regular expressions within the subject categories are assigned predetermined values, either negative or positive. If a communication contains regular expressions whose sum of weighted values exceeds a threshold value, the communication is stored for subsequent review by an authorized user of the system. If the communication contains keywords selected by the authorized user, the communication is also stored for subsequent review.
