Compliance and e-discovery

Companies around the world are required by various laws and regulations* to maintain electronic records and correspondence for a fixed period of time, after which they should be destroyed. Records must be guaranteed to be complete and stored in their original form. Failure to comply can result in hefty fines and even jail.

Compliance and e-discovery

GFI MailArchiver bolsters the ability to meet compliance standards by archiving all correspondence in a secure, tamper-proof store for a pre-determined period of time.

Companies can set up archiving rules and retention policies to categorize emails, and ensure they are stored for the required period of time. The solution also includes audit-trail functionality that monitors database and user activity, enabling companies to prove that archived emails have not been altered.

In the case of e-discovery or data request, companies can then use advanced search features to find and retrieve the data they need quickly and easily.

*Acts and regulations include: Sarbanes-Oxley Act, E-Commerce Act 2000, BS7799-2:2002, Enterprise Act 2002, Decreto del Presidente del Consiglio dei Ministri (8 febbraio 1999), and others; all require similar archiving and easy retrieval of correspondence.
