Tape Compliance
This sales play is focussed around the legal requirement for the retention of long term data. How does a business manage its data from inception until deletion? More importantly, can the business ensure that important documents are always stored on the correct media and that the data can be retrieved? Legalisation concerning the retention of data is becoming more prevalent especially in government and financial institutions. This is designed to ensure the preservation of important information such as financial documents, emails and legal documents. Businesses and CIOs are more increasingly being held accountable for the availability of such files. With hefty penalties in place for businesses that are unable to retrieve the required information it is essential that businesses understand the legislation that is relevant to them. IBM has a range of solutions to help customers deal with these issues including the DR550 and WORM (Write Once Read Many) enablement of both LTO and TS1120 tape drive systems.
