Protecting Corporate Data that was in control of Former employees

Protecting corporate data after an employee leaves can be futile, expensive and risky. Vaultastic's automatic cloud data archiving proactively protects corporate data assets before an employee leaves.

Vaultastic’s scalability and flexibility allow you to store and manage large amounts of critical corporate data at highly optimised costs as your data grows.

Why should you preserve the corporate data assets in former employees' control?

One set of reasons is compliance, Litigation, Knowledge reuse, and support for a smooth Role Transition to successors. The other is that when employees leave a company (voluntarily or otherwise), it is common for them to take away sensitive and confidential data and delete some critical data. Either way, long-term corporate data retention can substantially reduce your organization's risk.

Problems related to protecting corporate data used by former employees

Essentially there are three key concern areas:
  • Ensuring that you safeguard all corporate data assets used and controlled by former employees.
  • Ensuring that employees do not carry confidential information when they leave the company.
  • Once an employee leaves, access to corporate systems and data is disabled.

Typical challenges with traditional methods of protecting corporate data accessed by former employees

Our conversations with hundreds of decision-makers suggest that:

Unnecessary cost

Leaving mailboxes and drive accounts of ex-employees disabled on the Primary mail/workplace productivity solution is a standard method but an unnecessary cost.

Risky and unwieldy for search and access

And storing raw data locally or on the cloud or endpoints fragments data and can be risky (since it's not tamper-proof) and unwieldy for search and access.

Limiting and expensive

Using native archiving cloud solutions can be limiting and expensive.

Reactive approach is futile

A reactive approach is futile. Attempting to recover corporate data when an employee is about to leave does not guarantee that all information in the control of the employee is available.
