Records Management, E-Discovery, Compliance

The Next Big Milestone
Pan-Enterprise Records Management

There have been some very significant developments in electronic records management (ERM) solutions in the last 10 years. International standards such as DoD 5015.2 and MoReq2 have helped the industry to agree on the functional requirements, and the top-end solution providers have made... Posted November 01, 2008

Records Management: Not as Easy as It Looks

Often on the advice of legal counsel, more organizations are evaluating enterprise records management to comply with the revised e-discovery laws or support compliance. Despite the urgency of this mandate, the reality is that it can take years to implement true, enterprisewide records management.Even among Global 1000 companies with the financial and legal resources to fund such initiatives, analysts estimate that only a fraction has an enterprisewide...

Good Information Governance
Taking Records Management beyond Records

As projected by analyst firm IDC in a recent report ("The Diverse and Exploding Digital Universe," March, 2008) the world will create and replicate close to 1,800 exabytes (or 1,800 billion gigabytes) of digital information by 2011, 10 times the amount created and replicated in 2006. The annual compound growth rate between now and 2011 will be almost 60%... Posted November 01, 2008

The Art of Destruction
An Overlooked Key to Records Management and e-Discovery

Although storing 250 gigabytes of data can cost less than $250, hiring an external firm to process and review this data for e-discovery can cost up to $1 million. The impact of these costs is particularly noticeable to in-house legal teams and support staff who are often at the front lines of any e-discovery... Posted November 01, 2008

“The Dog Ate My Homework...”
...and Other Poor Excuses for Not Archiving

At first glance, the recent survey on email archiving by the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) seems to contradict itself. It found that while most companies realize they have to retain email and other electronic records for at least 50 years, most admit they are "highly dissatisfied"... Posted November 01, 2008

Edges Moving Toward the Center
Records and Archiving Join the Information Management Table

Once upon a time there was a records manager, who managed records. And there was an IT group, who managed archives. And there were knowledge workers, who carried out their daily jobs. And there were legal officers, who made sure all the above didn't get the company in trouble... Posted November 01, 2008

Email—The Compliance Elephant in the Corner

Most of today's biggest and best businesses do not run on SAP, Oracle, Siebel or salesforce.com alone—they also run on email. That's right, email. In all its forms—Microsoft Exchange, Notes and proprietary platforms; and with all their access points—Web, Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express and mobile. This simple medium of communication has grown uncontrolled into one of the largest corporate information repositories. Email has become a collaboration tool, calendar, contact database, revision control platform and overall central repository for everything many of us do in every business day. It is now the unofficial de-facto file server... Posted July 09, 2008

The True Cost of Information Risk

Let's face it: when it comes to electronic data, especially email, most of us are pack rats. We are loath to delete anything, no matter how old or utterly useless it might seem, for fear of not being able to find a document or message in the (highly unlikely) event we need a key piece of information. When the email administrator knocks on our office door or cube wall, our justification is elegantly simple: we should be able to keep as much email as we want because "storage is cheap...

Protecting Content During Business Disruption

The unfortunate rise in business disruptions from natural disasters, accidents, and human intervention increasingly proves how business continuity and disaster readiness planning is necessary to any responsible business operation. Whether it's something as ordinary as a fire, power outage, or computer virus, or a dramatic anomaly like a major hurricane or terrorist attack, more and more businesses—large and small—are facing the reality that the unexpected can happen at any time...

Eliminating Compliance Silos
The First Step Toward Automated GRC

Governance, risk management and compliance (GRC)—is it a new acronym for existing processes? Yes and no. Individual disciplines for governance, risk and compliance have existed in the past; however, these activities have been fragmented, disparate and duplicative efforts across many aspects of an organization. In order to see business value from GRC, companies must redefine GRC for their organization and adapt their processes to fit these new definitions... Posted July 09, 2008

Risky Business
How “Avoiding Trouble” has Become “Risking Trouble”

I entered into this relatively newly amalgamated area of "governance, risk management and compliance" (inevitably acronymned "GRC") with a false understanding. I assumed that compliance was what you had to do, governance is what you should do, and risk avoidance is what you achieved if you did the first two things correctly. That, I have learned, is only sort of correct. But sort of not. Which should come as no surprise to anyone who has read these columns, nor to me. I should know better. I never get it right the first time.
Seems that whether it's managing content for business purposes, or managing regulations for compliance purposes, or even managing disaster recovery for business continuity purposes, a "risk-based approach" is all the rage... Posted July 09, 2008

Laying the groundwork for federated records management

The case for federated records management (RM) is strong—leave records in their native repositories, but manage them centrally. That way, the records do not need to be physically moved into a single location, yet a single set of retention rules can be applied. Records are "virtualized" so that they all appear to be within the federated records management application, from which they can be searched, placed on hold, or acted on in other ways.

KMWorld 100 Companies That Matter in Knowledge Management 2008

So why do these companies matter? Not necessarily because they are the most innovative, but that's a factor. Not because they are ahead of the curve on Enterprise 2.0 initiatives, but that's also a factor.Not because they are the most financially successful (that's not a factor), and not because they have the most efficient marketing engines—that's not a factor either.We have long held that the true essence of knowledge management is an attitude, a single-minded commitment to improvement.
