Data Loss During Business Transitions And How to Avoid It

StorageMAP minimized data risks during mergers, acquisitions, or divestitures.

Data Risk

Much of the risk of integrating the data of a newly acquired company is in knowing exactly what risk is being inherited. So how do you assess the dangers of merging so much data into existing systems? StorageMAP brings the insight needed to make informed decisions about what data to merge, what to archive, and what data should just be removed as soon as possible before it becomes your risk.

 

Access Risk

When merging newly acquired data, it is vital to maintain the right access controls. Secure or sensitive data could easily be exposed to unauthorized eyes. But this is a massive task when integrating so much data. StorageMAP provides the insight and reporting needed for all stakeholders to understand who should have access to what before it is too late.

Retention Risk

Most organizations have a responsibility to store certain data for a specific period whether it be to conform to internal audit regulations or external laws. But assessing which data requires which retention settings and then making sure that it is enforced is a mammoth task on billions of files. StorageMAP helps you understand what should be retained and for what periods and makes sure that is done properly as you merge data onto your systems.
