RSD Compliance and Governance Services (CGS) provide the ability to:

All these additional values are now part of the RSD flagship product, RSD Folders 5.0 and will be soon enhancing the upcoming new EOS version. Along with secured access, these new functionalities help organizations comply with corporate and government regulations for all types of business information (documents of Microsoft Office content, print streams, reports and print lists, audio and video files, as well as ERP and legacy-generated information).

Archive sealing

RSD’s electronic signature functionality offered now by RSD Folders new version allows the organization to sign archives. A digital signature based on the imprint of the content seals any information or data flow archived. The data is automatically preserved according to enterprise retention policies or a triggering event. Each time that information is retrieved, if a digital signature exists, verification can be made to ensure the authenticity of the content.

Also, while providing the ability to authenticate the signature at anytime, the solution enables migration without putting sealed archives at risk.

As a result, the solution is media independent and offers the opportunity to remove business-critical information from expensive physical media storage types such as WORM, while guaranteeing any signed content integrity and improving its longevity.

Benefits

  • Enable validation of business document integrity through imprint verification
  • Guarantee information authenticity and origin
  • Permit the sealing of archives independently from the hardware
  • Reduce storage costs while increasing content integrity and longevity

Activated at the database level and produced in CSV format, whatever the platform, the recorded events can be viewed through any third party viewer. Records can provide information by user, by document, by administration or by document activity type.

Secure access to enterprise information

Managing internal policy and procedure for the enterprise requires the ability to manage constant and persistent access to many sources and forms of information, in disparate locations. RSD solutions deliver users the right information regardless of its location or format, and can work with most authentication schemes to provide secure access.

Benefits

  • Ensure secure viewing and retrieval through authentication
  • Apply specific access rights, by user, for all enterprise applications
  • Authentication can be proceeded by an RSD component, a homegrown security system, a CRM or any LDAP-compliant directory system
