The Mail App

Secure Messaging App for Correctional Facilities

Trading text messages has become a staple in today’s world. The CID Net Mail App facilitates secure email messaging services between inmates and approved contacts. These messages (known as CID Net Utilization Events – CUEs) happen entirely over the internet and use data, similar to a cellphone plan. Offer an affordable and instantaneous way for people to stay in touch with CID Net Mail.

Restrict Who Inmates can Message

The CID Net Mail App lets an inmate trade email message CUEs with a contact using touch screen devices and/or tablets. All messages are recorded and can be reviewed in a conversation format by correctional officers for investigative purposes.

Powerful Oversight of Conversations

Monitor Mail CUEs between an inmate and contact or search for conversations based on certain criteria. Every CUE can be approved or declined before it reaches its intended recipient. CID Net gives jail staff and investigators unfettered access to all message communication, strengthening intelligence-gathering efforts. Staff can also save Mail CUEs and compile them into reports.

Connecting Through More Than Words

Contacts have the option to upload pictures to share with an inmate upon staff approval. If a contact sends a picture CUE containing lewd or other prohibited imagery, Cidnet’s artificial intelligence content moderation will notify jail staff of the infraction. In lieu of or along with visitation, picture CUEs help inmates maintain connections with their support system.

How CID Net Mail Works

Administrators can configure approval workflows, monitor message activity, and enforce policies all within the centralized CID Net portal — eliminating manual sorting, reducing physical mail handling, and giving facilities a searchable, auditable communication record. This improves timeliness, transparency, and security without adding separate systems or manual workload.
