San Jose, CA November 5th, 2012 - Resiligence Inc., developer of TipNow, launched the first social media monitoring product to tackle cyber-bullying on campuses today at the International Bullying Prevention Association Conference in Kansas City, MO.

According to Cyber bullying statistics from the i-SAFE foundation:

  • Over half of adolescents and teens have been bullied online, and about the same number have engaged in cyber bullying.
  • More than 1 in 3 young people have experienced cyber threats online.
  • Over 25 percent of adolescents and teens have been bullied repeatedly through their cell phones or the Internet.
  • Well over half of young people do not tell their parents when cyber bullying occurs.

  • It is widely known that children who are bullied experience real suffering that can interfere with their social and emotional development, as well as their school performance. Some victims of bullying have even attempted suicide rather than continue to endure such harassment and punishment. Resiligence's EONNow product addresses bullying issues by monitoring social media and generating relevant alerts for incidents of cyber-bullying. The system works by allowing users to input specific keywords of their choosing, and based on those keywords EONNow returns automated, actionable alerts from its continual monitoring of Twitter, Facebook, Youtube and Flickr. EONNow, like other Resiligence products, is offered as a Software as a Service model. Deployment does not require any hardware installation by the customer.

We believe EONNow will enable campus administrations across the nation to possibly catch and prevent cyber-bullying before such incidents progress to a very harmful stages."
