The Marketplace: 5 Major Reasons e-mail Archiving Is In High Demand
1 1 e-mail Continues to Grow in Volume, Size & Significance E-mail has become the primary medium for how we communicate. The consequence is that e-mail has become a de facto [record] repository. CIO Magazine, Jan 2005 Estimated 131 billion e-mails sent daily; predicted to increase to 276 billion by ‘09 • E-mail contains 75% of corporate Intellectual Property • E-mail is subject to government & industry regs • E-mail is increasingly being subpoenaed in litigation 3,390 PB Size of WW Business Email Volume Sent Annually in 2006 50% CAGR 2004 2006 1 Petabyte (PB) = 1 Million GB = 1 Billion MB Sources: The Radicati Group, Inc., April 2005; IDC 2004; Network World (2003); Socha / Gelbmann (2004)
2 1 e-mail IS How We Conduct Business • Negotiations & business relationships maintained with clients, vendors, etc • Products & services purchased • Employees communicate with execs & HR department • Receive or transmit business-related complaints, recommendations, problems, questions or inquiries • Communicate info about product dev, sales, service offerings, customer service, marketing or advertising
3 1 e-mail Systems Have Simply Become Overloaded E-mail systems are not designed to store vast amounts of email & attachments for long durations. Overloaded e-mail systems cause: • System down time • IT imposed mailbox size limits • Private archives (.pst/.nsf files) • Lost data due to .pst/.nsf corruption • Increased storage costs • Increased backup and restore times • Time consuming server upgrades • Challenge managing e-mail backups
4 1 Companies are Struggling with Regulations & Lawsuits • Small-business owners say being sued is one of the most threatening experiences they encounter. • Approx 75% of enterprises required to search backup tapes for old e-mail in past three years. • Five U.S. Banks were fined $1.25M for being unable to retrieve subpoenaed e-mails stored on backup tapes. • A single legal discovery for e-mail can cost between $150,000 and $250,000. • Mounting Regulatory Pressure • High penalties and brand damage associated with not meeting regulatory compliance • Increasing Litigation Risk & Cost • Inability to rapidly & cost effectively retrieve subpoenaed emails • Most electronic messages are deleted or stored on tape that isn’t indexed or accessible • Companies must ensure email authenticity Sources: Gartner; Osterman Research; various news articles.
5 1 e-mail Backup Tapes Do NOT Help…They Hinder • Backup tapes are a snapshot for system restore after failure • NOT an ongoing history of e-mails of compliance, legal or business value • Backup tapes are kept for a period of time suitable for IT • NOT according to laws, regulations and standards • NOT protected from deletion or edit • Backup tapes store everything for the same period of time • NOT selective emails for periods of time according to laws, regs, etc • NOT possible to utilize “single instance store” (keep 1 copy of e-mail sent to many) • Backup tapes store e-mails sequentially • NOT easy to find specific e-mails for a compliance audit or lawsuit
What will e-mail archiving do for your customers? Compliance, legal support and discovery • Demonstrate compliance with laws, regulations and internal policies • Reduce time, effort and expense of discovering e-mail evidence for litigation • Monitor e-mail communication and help prevent information leaks Improve e-mail system performance • Reduce the size of e-mail storage • Improve e-mail system performance and operations • Reduce backup and restore times Knowledge management • Leverage information contained in e-mail • E.g. for customer service, cross marketing, fraud detection, etc.
