Vaultastic, a cloud email archiving platform powered by AWS, helps you protect, manage, discover, and extract data with ease.
Data Protection with cloud email archiving
Cloud Email Archiving is critical to business continuity
Email is the most popular business communication tool making the mailbox an essential source of reference data gathered over email exchanges. Thus, protecting this data becomes critical to ensure business continuity.
Vaultastic, a cloud email archiving platform, safeguards email data in secure tamper-proof vaults over extended periods.
How cloud email archiving can improve Data Security
Securing email data in tamper-proof vaults can protect against data theft
IDC, some years ago, estimated that more than 60% of business-critical data resided in email boxes.
Because, besides business communications, email is also gaining importance as a destination for authentication, notification, authorization, issue resolution, and more for digital businesses.
Reversing Data Fragmentation
Email Data preserved in portable formats in a central cloud repository is an excellent alternative to traditionally stored and fragmented email data
With a central elastic store, fast e-discovery, and simple data extraction, Vaultastic’s cloud email archiving platform can:
- Reduce compliance-related concerns
- Ease the burden of adhering to your industry regulations and cybersecurity guidelines
- Comply with applicable privacy and data residency laws and
- Help respond to data access requests for litigation, audits, and reviews.
Leverage Cloud Email Archiving as an Activity Record
Immutable vaults preserve the integrity of Email trails for audits and investigations.
Email exchanges act as a record of activities both within the organization and with the outside world.
Legacy Data Management with cloud email archiving
Fragmented legacy email data across the organization can pose risks and cause friction while searching and migrating between systems.
Information Governance and Data Management
Role-based archival, access, and retention are necessary to simplify information governance.
Vaultastic’s role-based access control can support your organization’s information governance and data management strategy.
Vaultastic mimics your organization’s hierarchical structure by defining user-level retention policies and supporting a differential authorized access policy for the accumulated email data.
Increasing Data Accessibility and Availability with cloud email archiving
A durable, centralized, search-ready archive is key to making data accessible from anywhere, at any time, by anyone.
Vaultastic is a cloud email archiving platform leveraging elastic, durable cloud store objects to deliver a highly available service and extremely high data durability.
Vaultastic’s role-based self-service portal makes it easy to enable web-based access for all categories of users, thus improving accessibility and productivity.
Storage Management for Optimizing Costs
Better management of data preservation and retention can slow down rapidly growing email storage costs.
Most cloud email services provide sufficiently large mailboxes, which are suitable to start with, but they soon fill up.
To counteract this storage overflow, organizations need to either purchase a higher plan with additional storage or clean up individual email stores – a task that can take away many productive hours.
Discovery and Reuse of Digital Assets
Centralized archives with e-discovery capabilities can unlock valuable data assets trapped in individual email boxes
A central, search-ready repository for email can help you discover helpful information on-demand, thus leveraging the trapped value in email data.
Any piece of information is discovered instantly with Vaultastic’s e-discovery. And, save frequently used queries to uncover updated information with a single click later.
Supervision, OverSight, and Continuity of Activities
Centralized cloud email archiving enables supervisory access and control.
Vaultastics supervisory access to the archival store provides search across multiple vaults to support audits and compliance checks that help maintain oversight over the quality of work and adherence to company policies by any group of employees.
This function is essential during role transition when employees leave the organization, and their activities need to be continued by a successor.
Readiness for Data Related Regulatory Compliance
Cloud email archiving provides an excellent platform for compliance readiness
With more industry segments getting covered under regulations, it is vital to have a scalable way to safeguard email data and keep it compliance-ready, available on-demand easily and quickly.
With immutable stores, fast e-discovery, and simple data extraction, Vaultastic cloud email archiving can reduce compliance-related concerns.

Compliance Workflow Management and Collaboration

System Performance Optimisation
Hierarchical storage can reverse the degradation of system performance resulting from stuffed mailboxes
The increasing volume of email messages is leading to bloated mailboxes, resulting in slower and longer email client syncs, negatively impacting the performance of devices and mail servers, while users struggle to manage and maintain their inboxes to retain important messages.
Conclusion
A common thread in all the fourteen use-cases is the need to protect data, manage it and leverage it to solve specific problems.
Given that 80% of the world’s data is unstructured, and email carries a bulk of this, and 70% of critical business data is in email, it makes an excellent case for email data protection as the critical path of an organization’s data management strategy.
