Email archiving compliance requires innovative technology.

From Sarbanes-Oxley to HIPAA to the Freedom of Information Act, companies today operate amidst increasing regulation. As the primary form of business communication, email is increasingly involved in regulatory reviews and litigation. Email archiving compliance has consequently become a critical priority for businesses seeking to mitigate risk and protect corporate interests.

To achieve email archiving compliance, companies must be able to prove that archived email is authentic, that strong chains of custody are in place, and that archives are tamper-proof. While regulations can make the task a daunting and expensive one, Mimecast simplifies email archiving compliance with a solution that is quick to implement, easy to manage, and immediately affordable.

How Mimecast archiving works

Mimecast's email archive service automatically stores all email in a secure offsite location. It works transparently and automatically, requiring no input or action from end users. All incoming, outgoing, and internal email is automatically stored for up to 10 years, creating an email archive that can satisfy any regulatory compliance demands to produce historical email records. The archive can be searched through Microsoft Outlook or via Mimecast's webmail facility. Users can be authorized to search their own email, while administrators or legal professionals may be authorized to search the entire database to retrieve records for email archiving compliance purposes.

Achieve compliance with tamper-proof email archiving

Mimecast simplifies and ensures email archiving compliance by providing a full audit trail of every search of the archive, every email accessed, every system access, and every policy created and changed. With this capability, companies find it easy to comply with regulatory or legal requests for documentation concerning:

• Proof of delivery or receipt
• Copies of email pre-post disclaimers and marketing
• The inability to delete email and attachments
• The inability to tamper with email
• Records of access and searches performed

In addition to email archiving compliance, Mimecast's unified email management solution delivers tools for email spam filtering and antivirus protection, email filtering, and email GRC solutions for Microsoft Exchange server recovery, and more.
