Denham

The Key is in the Controls: How to Archive E-Mail Effectively
Bill Denham, Senior Consultant, Hitachi Data Systems

It is essential for legal, records management, internal audit and IT to discuss everything from how messaging applications are used to where evidence sources exist. These enterprise units can help set policies and automate the enforcement with appropriate archiving technology. Having policies without the enforcing technology can cause a bigger problem since it relies on employees to do the right thing which does not always happen.

In this session attendees will learn:

How policies and technology work together
What types of policies are needed to adhere to government regulations
How to cross train different business units to understand the policies and how it applies to them
How often teams should meet to update policies and procedures
How much is ‘too much’ with respect to controls and policies
