 "Symantec Launches Enterprise Vault 7.0")
Symantec has announced Symantec Enterprise Vault 7.0, the latest version of its content archival solution designed to store e-mail and collaborative content as per retention and compliance requirements.
The Symantec Enterprise Vault 7.0 is said to offer new intelligent classification capabilities, which facilitate preservation and disposition of content based on its business value. Some of the new features of the latest version include:
- An automated classification engine which reduces archive size and search times by categorizing and retaining e-mail based on 50 pre-defined or an unlimited number of customizable rules types.
- A user classification engine which ensures a consistent records retention program by classifying all e-mail as each message is created or read by the user directly in Microsoft Office Outlook.
- Role-based archive administration delegates common tasks to first-line administrators while preserving security by controlling what each administrator can do all on the same infrastructure.
- Granular provisioning enforces different archiving shortcutting and retention policies for users with varying requirements (e.g., heavy users, executive users, mobile users or regulated employees).
- Advanced reporting and monitoring feature reduces the cost of management through automated, web-based, customizable diagnostics and dashboards for tracking the health and usage of the archive.
Launching the latest version of Enterprise Vault, Francis deSouza, vice president of the Information Foundation Group, Symantec said, “The massive growth in electronic content has become a financial and legal challenge for all organizations. Managing more than 8 million mailboxes for nearly 5,000 customers worldwide, Symantec Enterprise Vault reduces IT and legal costs and information risk, while scaling to hundreds of thousands of users and billions of archived objects.”
The solution is available immediately through Symantec’s worldwide network of value-added authorized resellers, distributors and systems integrators.
