CRYOSERVER

Forensic and Compliance Systems' Cryoserver system is the world's leading forensic archiving and compliance solution for email, instant messaging and other electronic records. Enterprises and governments rely on Cryoserver for assurance surrounding the retention and access of critical business, operational and publicly held information.

The Cryoserver sealed appliances provide a complete, tamper-evident repository of emails and instant messages sent to, from and around an organization.

Cryoserver ensures that emails are easily available and suitable for legal and regulatory compliance and that the emails are of a high evidential weight. Cryoserver is often likened to a black box flight recorder for electronic communications, combined with performance and simplicity that are comparable to internet search engines.

The design criteria for Cryoserver was heavily influenced by concerns from internet service providers in 2000, that they would need to retain and search trillions of emails in response to pending legislation. The result today is a solution that supports carrier-grade data volumes yet remains affordable by organizations of all sizes. The strong emphasis on auditing and forensic procedures means that organizations can meet the growing need for data retention while at the same time protecting the privacy rights of those to which their data relates.

Forensic and Compliance Systems customers benefit from:

  • Fast access to critical information in response to disputes and compliance requests
  • Cost and time savings through eliminating dependence on resurrecting and searching email back-up tapes
  • Workplace good practices encouraged by awareness of Cryoserver's deployment
  • High standards of data privacy and protection brought about via:
    • Strict auditing of searches to ensure individuals entrusted with performing investigations remain within the confines of the investigation only.
    • Removing the need to broaden involvement in search activity to technical specialists or others beyond an investigating officer.

 “Cryoserver is working very well for us. It does everything we need for best practice and compliance, and more. In the IT Department, it has given us the peace of mind that all emails are stored and should we need to retrieve them, it’s a very simple and quick process. It also means that other staff are content that no one can access their emails without good reason and even then it’s traced”.
