Security Starts with Continuous Capture

ArchiveStore/EM's Archiver service continuously reads email from the journal mailbox and classifies each message according to predetermined policies. To meet compliance and legal discovery requirements, the solution does not "batch archive". Continuous capture allows messages to be immediately removed from the mail server following archiving. This essential step eliminates any possibility that a message has been modified or deleted prior to reaching the archive.

Only ArchiveStore/EM compresses data (reducing average file size by 50%), encrypts each message for confidentiality and digitally signs email for non-repudiation.

256-Bit AES Encryption
Security in Transit and in Storage

Other email archiving solutions encrypt messages during transfer but then store files unencrypted, allowing an unobstructed view to anyone with access to the archive. Only ArchiveStore/EM automatically encrypts every document to be archived, both in transit and in storage. The solution employs 256-bit AES encryption, beyond government standards, for the greatest possible security.

1024-Bit Digital Signatures
Control Over Document Destruction
ArchiveStore/EM automatically assigns each document a unique digital signature. This RSA 1024-bit encryption key proves the authenticity of each document. It also gives administrators the power to effectively destroy all copies of any document by deleting its key. Because only one encryption key can 'unlock' any given file, this method of document destruction is effective regardless of where the file is stored.

Tamper-Evident Audit Trails
Maximum Evidential Weight for Email Archives

Under ArchiveStore/EM, any and every use of a message - each time it is stored, viewed, moved or deleted - automatically creates a tamper-evident audit trail. Policy changes are audited as well. These audit trails assure the integrity of email archives, providing the highest level of legal admissibility and the maximum evidential weight for email records.

Privacy and Access
Easy Access for Authorized Users
Users have secure access to email they sent, received or were copied on, via any web browser or through their mail client application. ArchiveStore/EM offers powerful, easy, Google-like message search, with retrieval online or to the original inbox; administrators have the option of recovering email to any inbox. Under Microsoft Exchange 2000 and 2003 servers, user access to authorized archived files is virtually transparent.

No Access for Unauthorized Users
Messages are encrypted during both transfer and storage, giving away nothing to someone who manages unauthorized access to the archive. ArchiveStore/EM recognizes when users are removed from distribution lists, allowing them access to documents only prior to their removal date.
