Email Archiving with Symantec Enterprise Vault

Email Archiving is one of the most important areas of the 21st century business environment—and one of its biggest burdens. The global daily email traffic volume has now topped 35 billion messages. At the same time, the type of information contained within those emails has become increasingly corporate-sensitive. The amount of classified corporate knowledge currently being communicated via email is around 70%. Management is a critical business issue. The biggest challenge that IT departments face is what to do with the increasing amount of email moving from department to department as well as coming into and going out of the organisation each day.

Common symptoms

• Exchange users and administrators are having "spacewars"

• Time for Exchange restoration is an issue

• Deleted item recovery is slow and expensive

• Email is an unmanaged information asset

• There are legal requirements to retain some/all information

Content email archiving reduces the ongoing cost of email storage, brings control to mailbox management, optimises the backup/recovery cycle and ensures that valuable information can be retrieved quickly and efficiently.

Benefits of Email Archiving
