Sent to you by pakurilecz via Google Reader: IT Executives Remain
Resistant to Email Archiving via Death By Email Blog by Roger Matus on
11/10/08
Despite the significant risks facing companies that do not archive
email messages, IT executives are not taking the requirements
seriously, according to a study released yesterday by Proofpoint: The
September 2008 survey (conducted by Osterman Research on behalf of
Proofpoint) of 130 IT managers and executives who manage an average of
17,000 email users, found that:
- Nearly 60% of respondents do not have an email archiving solution in
place and 15% do not have plans to deploy one.
Given the increasing amount of litigation and court rulings, I am
shocked by these numbers. In the Proofpoint press release, they
mentioned the following statistics:
- More than one in three (39%) companies surveyed had been ordered by a
court or regulatory body to produce employee email in the past 12
months alone.
- Previous Osterman research (April 2008) has found that nearly two-
thirds of organizations have been ordered to produce employee email or
instant messages at some point, while a slightly higher percentage have
referred back to email archives or backups to support their innocence
in a legal case.
