A typical large business creates literally millions of electronic records every year—from private contracts and financial spreadsheets to public presentations and proposals. These documents create significant information risk management challenges and liabilities for organizations, especially in today’s climate of frequent litigation and strict government regulations.
Most businesses have implemented some kind of centralized record management solution to deal with information risk management. But these solutions are only effective when users remember to archive documents on the centralized server—and properly destroy local copies and versions from individual machines. Unfortunately, remembering which documents are subject to retention policies, deciding which documents should be saved or destroyed, remembering retention policy details, and taking the time to upload documents to the server is a time consuming chore that most corporate workers simply won’t bother with.
