AUTONOMY ZANTAZ UNVEILS FULL SPECTRUM OF IDOL-BASED SOLUTIONS FOR PROACTIVE INFORMATION RISK MANAGEMENT
Unveils Industry's First Unified System for Both Archived and Operational Data to Minimize Risk, Increase Preparedness and Lower the Cost Associated with Litigation
Cambridge, UK and Pleasanton, Calif. - October 9, 2007 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today unveiled a series of announcements elevating Autonomy ZANTAZ as the only vendor to deliver the most advanced and complete Proactive Information Risk Management solutions in the market. Information Risk Management, or IRM, is the act of dynamically and automatically mitigating the risks endemic to the everyday production of excess amounts of data through intelligent archiving, automated policy management and advanced eDiscovery.
The full spectrum of offerings include: media restoration, consolidated archiving, advanced electronic data discovery, review, production, real-time policy management and analytics. Most importantly, the entire spectrum is now based on one common platform -- Autonomy's Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL). IDOL automates the understanding and processing of all sources of operational information including email, instant messages, files, applications, voice and video. The combination of the ZANTAZ solutions and IDOL allows enterprise data to be simultaneously available across both operational systems and consolidated archives -- eliminating the need to deploy and maintain two separate IT solutions.
In two accompanying press releases issued today, Autonomy ZANTAZ announced version 6 of both its Enterprise Archive Solution (EAS) and Introspect software are now powered by IDOL. IDOL's ability to understand the meaning of information and its relationships enables organizations to apply key conceptual advances to the traditional IRM model and take a much more proactive stance to information management.
The comprehensive full spectrum of Autonomy ZANTAZ solutions introduces many industry innovations and "firsts":
The explosion of unstructured information such as emails, documents, instant messaging, audio, video, blogs and web pages has introduced new challenges and potential threats to organizations regarding business operations, regulations and litigation preparedness. Regulatory changes mandate that all electronic information is discoverable and therefore organizations are now required to apply retention policies to far more than just email - facilitating the convergence of the archiving and eDiscovery markets.
In the report, Abysmal: The State of Retention Management (Forrester Research, Inc., July 2007), Barry Murphy states, "The gap between where organizations are today and where they should be is enormous. As a result, eDiscovery costs are high and repetitive. But the days of stakeholders looking the other way as legal teams spend millions of dollars per month on eDiscovery are over. Organizations are beginning due diligence on ways to more effectively conduct eDiscovery -- and to better effect overall information management. In some cases, these initiatives are led by IT; in other situations, they are led by legal; and once in a while, they're led by the business. In reality, it must be a combined effort."
"Organizations can now spot and respond to potential risks before they materialize." said Mike Lynch, CEO of Autonomy. "Companies that seek a preventative approach can utilize real-time policy management tools to monitor activities in the organization and ensure that employees are adhering to corporate policies. In addition, they can employ a preparatory approach by proactively archiving appropriate information in advance of potential regulatory or legal requests. A proactive response enables users to rapidly retrieve and assess data at the earliest sign of litigation to determine if there is a valid case. And finally, when a company is faced with a lawsuit, they can now help expedite the review process through the most advanced eDiscovery processing and analytics in the market today."
