Granular, Secure Retention of Archive Data
EMC Data Domain Retention Lock enables IT organizations to efficiently store and manage different types of governance and compliance archive data on a single EMC Data Domain system. Data Domain Retention Lock ensures that archive data stored on a Data Domain system meets secure data retention requirements driven by either governance policies or by strict regulatory compliance standards such as SEC 17a-4(f). In addition, Data Domain Retention Lock enables secure file locking of archive data at an individual file level; enabling these files to be intermixed with unlocked files on the same Data Domain system.
Compliance Archive
Data Domain Retention Lock Compliance edition meets the strictest retention requirements of regulatory standards such as SEC 17a-4(f) for electronic records including file, email, and content. Data Domain Retention Lock Compliance edition ensures that files on the Data Domain system that are locked by an archive application for a specified retention period cannot be deleted or overwritten under any circumstances until the retention period expires.
Integration with Archive Applications
Data Domain Retention Lock leverages industry-standard protocols such as Network File System (NFS) and Common Internet File System (CIFS) for time-based retention of files. As a result, it can be integrated seamlessly with industry-leading archive applications including EMC SourceOne and Symantec Enterprise Vault, providing customers with an end-to-end archiving solution.
