EMC Solution for eDiscovery Collection

During the last week, EMC formally launched the Solution for eDiscovery Collection. The Solution combines the StoredIQ indexing appliance with EMC's compliance infrastructure. The technology is finally mature enough to really deliver a return on investment; it really works. The following is a link to a 10 minute demo of the solution. If you're spending too much on eDiscovery, and/or if you're at all interested in "bringing eDiscovery in house" I recommend you spend a few minutes and view it: EMC Solution for eDiscovery Collection Demo.  EMC will also conduct free proof of concepts (POCs), where you can use the solution on your own data sets to test for yourself how well it works.

Information Compliance

I am going to begin a series of posts dealing with "Information Compliance" (aka "Governance Risk and Compliance - GRC"). 

To kick it off, I'm attaching a storyboard that shows, with pictures, some of the challenges that organizations face in putting policy management discipline around their information so that they can achieve the three (3) core goals of information management - reduce cost, reduce risk, and extract value from organizational information.
