Press ReleaseFileTek Introduces Trusted Edge Data Classification Solution for Microsoft SharePointUnstructured Data Classification Solution Enhances SharePoint Records Manager to Extend Policy Management and Enforcement Across the Enterprise Ensuring Compliance at the Desktop
By utilizing a unique approach to data classification, Trusted Edge is a perfect complement to SharePoint's baseline ECM functionality, providing a controlled collection methodology that stores unstructured data (content, documents, and files) into the SharePoint repository. Trusted Edge solves a key problem facing businesses today - how to successfully implement a "best practices" digital records management policy across the entire enterprise network, including the desktop, where 80% of documents are created. Unlike traditional ECM solutions, Trusted Edge enforces the mandatory categorization of desktop-generated data from MS Office and other applications extending SharePoint's control to files stored inside and outside the repository, dramatically reducing risks associated with unknown or unidentified copies. According to Enterprise Strategy Group research, organizations will archive nearly 90 exabytes of unstructured content in the next five years to meet compliance, records management, legal preservation and improved information access requirements. "There are two dynamics that make Trusted Edge's announcement timely," said Brian Babineau, Senior Analyst with Enterprise Strategy Group. "First, a large amount of unstructured information will be managed within SharePoint, and second, much of the data will be created at the desktop." As a result, organizations are going to need a means to classify data at the point of creation and then leverage solutions like SharePoint that enforce policies based on the various information categories. "Our Trusted Edge solution delivers unique functionality for SharePoint extending records management controls from the very edge of the network to the core of the enterprise," said Philip Pascarelli, President of FileTek. "By intelligently enhancing SharePoint, Trusted Edge gives organizations a powerful solution that better manages unstructured data and mitigates the risks associated with electronic content. In addition, the Trusted Edge solution can route content to multiple repositories allowing the SharePoint ecosystem to leverage opportunities involving other ECM and archival applications and extend the value proposition." The Trusted Edge Compliance Suite for Microsoft SharePoint plays a pivotal role in managing unstructured data through the capture, classification and control of information created, used and stored on the desktop and at the network's edge. Following the deployment of Trusted Edge, businesses can apply corporate policies to desktop information, and subsequently manage documents and emails based on internal and external policies. The solution improves retention compliance, reduces litigation risk and optimizes enterprise storage costs by classifying and routing files to their appropriate location. In addition, Trusted Edge works with various ECM solutions to enforce repository-based functions back out to the desktop to ensure end-to-end policy compliance. Trusted Edge also features a unique architecture allowing the business utilization of auto-classification or user-classification policies. FileTek's technology partners for Trusted Edge include
