Messaging Architects Press Release
Free Email Risk Assessment
Messaging Architects provides organizations with a free email risk assessment to help bridge security and compliance gaps
Montreal, April 24, 2008 - Messaging Architects, the experts in email compliance and risk management, today announced an offer to provide government, education and corporate organizations with a free email risk assessment to determine whether their email practices present a risk – or whether they are on the right track.
“Large organizations today are efficient at maintaining their email security and system performance to ensure business continuity,” said Anne-Lisa de Forest, VP of Professional Services at Messaging Architects.
“However, most organizations are still not filtering their email content to prevent data leakage and retaining their emails records for legal discovery purposes. This creates major holes in their IT governance and risk management strategies.”
75% of an organization’s intellectual property gets circulated and stored via email, explains de Forest. That’s why email is subpoenaed in 75% of lawsuits.
Without an email content filtering and retention solution in place, organizations run the risk of having confidential data and offensive emails enter and leave their organization which can lead to lawsuits, damage to reputation, and loss of competitive advantage.
Further, organizations cannot produce their email records on-demand during legal discovery which means they will not be able produce the required evidence to defend themselves in the event of a lawsuit.
Messaging Architect’s free email risk assessment will help create the much-needed awareness amongst organizations. In just a short 30-minute telephone consultation, organizations will walk away with a scorecard that identifies the risk their current email practices and systems pose in the areas of compliance, security, content filtering, record retention and system performance.
