Why is protecting email data a priority
Challenges
01
Heavily targeted: The sensitive and commercially valuable nature of this data makes them vulnerable to data theft, cyber-attacks and security violations from within the organization and from outside.
02
Using traditional methods can create an unsafe and dark data lake: Storing these emails on-premise, using backup tapes and storage devices can lead to loss of critical information due to physical damage or tampering. Moreover, data stored using these means, makes it hard to locate required information on demand due to the lack of visibility into the content of such data stores.
03
Data fragmentation: Mailboxes bloat rapidly, forcing the users to backup email locally and delete email from their mailboxes. This fragmentation of information makes it challenging to detect and locate data leakage sources.
04
Lack of self service for accessing legacy data: In most cases, the legacy data is fragmented in cold data lakes on traditional devices and is near impossible for end users to access on their own. This leads to productivity loss as the users must depend on the IT team and tedious procedures to extract the required data.
05
Compliance with HIPAA and GDPR: Healthcare providers, due to the sensitive nature of the information they manage, come under the strict purview of industry regulations like HIPAA and GDPR, both aimed at protecting the personal information and medical records of patients. Many healthcare providers lack IT resources and systems to help them stay compliant to these regulations.
