Being able to state with confidence that a complete record of emails to and from an organization and internally to a business requires a clinical, organized and provable trace of email that will provide any investigating entity with high degrees of confidence that they have an accurate record of email events. The Cryoserver Archive product set embeds a philosophy of “forensic grade compliance” through every aspect of its design.
Our retention philosophy of retaining all email is the only approach that can guarantee a holistically complete email record set. Those approaches that employ or offer a policy manager not only increase the cost of ownership of the email archiving product, but also cannot be said to offer true email compliance. Certainly there can be little confidence that all emails have been retained. Such solutions can be said to be archive driven as opposed to compliance driven. It’s easy to understand why The Cryoserver Archive technology is compliance driven in this regard. In addition to retention philosophy, the Cryoserver Archive also offers “forensic grade” compliance. But what does this mean?
Forensic grade compliance describes a grade of email archive compliance that has high evidential weight with regard to it’s completeness and integrity. It must be shown that the email records could not have been tampered with beyond all reasonable doubt. This effectively means that it must be possible to demonstrate that the record being written is the same as the record being read back. The Cryoserver Archive product has a heritage of embedded forensic robustness with time stamps taken from sender, recipient, timing servers and processed time. With email data protected via AES 128bit encryption, and tamper proof checksums ensuring administrators and auditors alike may be confident in the knowledge that emails have not been tampered with and that the email archive provides a true reflection of the sequence and content of email messages. Further, our Data Guardian technology mitigates the risk of unauthorized or inappropriate e-discovery operations by privileged personnel – ensuring that appointed data guardians are informed of all investigative activity.
The Cryoserver Archive product provides the only “forensic” grade email compliance solution available today.
