In today's world the process of information management includes
many new challenges brought forth by increasing regulation
and monitoring of corporate and agency data. Not only is
the volume of electronic documents and data continuing to
grow at an unprecedented pace, but increasingly companies
and agencies are required to maintain these electronic records
using a "compliant" method, for long periods of time.
There are over 4000 "Compliance" regulations in the United States alone, and nearly all include electronic record
preservation and retention requirements. Regulatory compliance
legislation such as HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley and others place
strict requirements with regard to the storage, protection
and distribution of these volumes of information. They also
specify requirements for assuring its accurate preservation
and for providing controlled access to the information. As
a consequence, today's IT environments demand solutions which
facilitate this compliance while simultaneously delivering
on-line access, WORM file attributes, and a reasonable Total
Cost of Ownership.
Management tasked with implementing electronic
records systems must meet the formidable and critically important
challenges of operating these systems in accordance with the
applicable laws and regulations. To that end, they must reduce
the legal, regulatory and business risks involved in the capture,
storage, distribution and reproduction of their electronic
records.
Throughout the numerous statutes and regulations
that have promulgated electronic record legislation there is
a common set of foundational requirements regarding the use
and acceptance of electronic records
In selected regulations, and in all good
practices related to electronic records storage, a duplicate
“recovery” copy of the original electronic record is required
and in specific cases it must be kept at a separate geographical
location.
An increasing number of laws and regulations
now require an audit trail be produced and retained as
a means of tracking any possible alterations to, unauthorized
access
to or distribution of the record. Audit trails must also
be provided to monitor other events such as the migration
of the
record, e.g., the transfer of records from one media to
another. For these reasons, data storage systems must also
provide these
controls and functions:
Organizations need to conduct a thorough
evaluation of their current policies and practices, and based
on their findings, develop a forward-looking strategy. In addition
to meeting their individual compliance and best practices requirements,
companies also need to implement long-term data protection
strategies that leverage and integrate within their existing
infrastructure.
In meeting these compliance obligations
many organizations are achieving a more efficient use of capital
resources by employing partners that can help them manage such
a dynamic and complex volume of information. These partners
provide a strategic role, advising management of proven policies,
products and technologies which are collectively required to
enable compliance.
