    Overview

    Minimizing compliance risk for email archiving

    As the complexity of regulations concerning email retention continues to grow, more IT teams are seeking solutions that can help to reduce compliance risk while simplifying email archiving tasks.

    The regulatory environment around email archiving has become quite complicated in recent years for several reasons. Email is increasingly used as evidence in legal proceedings – as the primary record of business communication, it can be used document timing, motivation, intent and knowledge of business decisions and transactions. And because email is so ubiquitous and relied upon by so many users, it is the #1 attack vector for malicious individuals seeking to breach defenses to steal data and money. Consequently, email security and retention is increasingly governed by regulations in the government, finance and healthcare sectors, increasing the difficulty of managing compliance risk when archiving email data.

    To achieve archiving compliance and minimize compliance risk, organizations need easy-to-use tools that can significantly reduce the time and resources required to manage retention and archiving compliance while automating backup and system recovery. For tens of thousands of organizations worldwide, Mimecast provides the email archiving and recovery management solutions of choice.

    Multiple copies of email help minimize email compliance risk

    To reduce compliance risk, Mimecast retains three tamper-proof copies of all archived email. Each message is encrypted and stored in data centers in geographically diverse locations. Mimecast retains original email content, messages that are modified by content policy, and metadata that provides proof of delivery and non-repudiation information.

    Mimecast also offers an optional Sync & Recover solution for fast and easy mail recovery and contact and calendar data recovery after loss or corruption. And because Mimecast Cloud Archive can retain documents in addition to email, Mimecast can serve as a file recovery software solution in addition to an email backup and recovery solution.
