Governance in the cloud

CA and Acxiom have formed an alliance to deliver enterprise-class, on-demand information governance solutions. The new service is immediately available.

The new cloud-based, hosted solution from CA and Acxiom offers customers an alternative to on-premise software deployments, while providing a single portal view to better manage e-mail, archiving, litigation hold, search, records declaration, retention and disposition. The companies say legal compliance and IT professionals will be able to conduct e-discovery tasks directly from their desktops without a service provider intermediary, helping to achieve Lean IT by reducing overall costs, complexity and risk.

CA is well-known for information governance engineered to enable litigation readiness and regulatory compliance through e-discovery, archiving, compliance and records management technology. The two companies report that through Acxiom’s hosted model, customers can achieve IT costs savings, improved efficiency, greater responsiveness to changing business conditions and increased revenue and profitability.
