JANET(UK), the UKs education and research network, has selected PageOne Communications to provide its JANET txt service for a further four years. PageOne, which provides mobile messaging solutions to the education, public and enterprise sectors, says that it was chosen due to its commercial pedigree, financial credibility and its commitment to data and information security through its ISO27001 accreditation.
