The document discusses best practices for managing archive migrations. It notes that many organizations need to migrate huge amounts of archived data as their legacy archive systems have become expensive to maintain, difficult to upgrade, and unable to meet new functionality needs. A successful archive migration requires careful planning, understanding the capabilities and limitations of the current system, choosing migration software to meet requirements, and regular communication. The document provides an overview of challenges organizations face with archive migrations and recommendations to improve the process.
RIGHT PRACTICES IN DATA MANAGEMENT AND GOVERNANCEVARUN KESAVAN
This is the era of data revolution. Data is being traded as a commodity and has even been dubbed "the new oil". Almost 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created daily, and that number is only going up. With this rapid proliferation of data, instances of data misuse are rising. Instant information sharing has both saved and endangered lives. These polar opposite outcomes have sparked debate on data management and governance, with many seeing regulation as a threat to business.
For example, Facebook's recent data breach, if found to violate the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), could cost them 4% of their global revenue (or $1.63 billion) in fines. This resonated as a warning shot to enterprises across the globe. As concerns grow, it will serve enterprises well to remember how valuable consumer trust is to them. That is precisely why the threat of punitive action could, in fact, be enterprises' biggest ally in this data revolution.

KEY TAKEAWAYS The goal of this white paper is to demonstrate the critical importance of electronic archiving as a best practice for any organization to follow. Specifically:
• Archiving can be used as a primarily “defensive” capability to protect an organization from the variety of legal, regulatory and other external requirements that it will inevitably be called upon to satisfy.
• Archiving can also be used proactively to make employees more productive, enable a better understanding of how a business operates, and manage risk effectively.
• Archiving can provide hard cost savings that can be easily quantified, resulting in the ability to demonstrate a significant return-on-investment and a relatively short payback period.
• While email is the most common source of archived content, a number of other content types are becoming important to archive.
THE KEY DRIVERS FOR ARCHIVING ELECTRONIC CONTENT There are a variety of reasons that organizations archive their electronic content, although these will vary based on the industry that an organization serves, its risk tolerance, its corporate culture, the legal advice it chooses to follow, and the volume of electronic content it possesses. Figure 1 shows the reasons that organizations archive their electronic content and how these drivers have been changing over time. Further, we discuss the five primary drivers for archiving email and other content.
ABOUT THIS WHITE PAPER A key component of this white paper program is a survey that was conducted by Osterman Research during May 2014, results of which are presented in this paper. The paper also provides an overview of its sponsors, Sonasoft, and its relevant offerings.

The Critical Need for Enterprise-Grade File Sync and Share Solutions 1 viewHybrid Cloud
Consumer-focused file sync and share (CFSS) solutions have become one of the most
popular categories of applications used in the workplace over the past few years. Led
by Dropbox – as well as various freemium and paid offerings from companies like
Microsoft, Google, Apple and at least 80 other vendors – these tools allow users
automatically to synchronize their files across all of their desktop, laptop, smartphone
and tablet platforms. Users implement these tools for a variety of good reasons: to
have access to all of their files when working after hours or while traveling, in support
of formal or informal telework programs, or to share large files more efficiently or
when the corporate email system will not support sharing of files over a certain size.

Global Information
Governance:
Cross-border Records
Management the
Hard [copy] Way
A case study on new technology applied to persistent global
records management challenges
2
Introduction
Paper documents remain a staunch, if somewhat stodgy,
component of many global records management
inventories with fairly well understood business
challenges. Paper (hard copy) is an inflexible media type
that is frequently poorly indexed and organized. Such
documents are often hard to find and retrieve; and
typically, there is physical exertion and/or a service fee
involved to locate and recover the records.
Faced with regulatory and legal requirements, many
organizations find it difficult to determine whether
mounds of paper documents are too important to
throw away or too irrelevant to keep. These issues can
grow exponentially when documents are spread across
jurisdictions, especially when records decision-making lies
outside of a jurisdiction.
Are there benefits to maintaining the hard copy records
inventory more closely, and with more centralized
transparency? Absolutely, but those benefits are often
diffused across the organization and it becomes difficult
to translate the benefits in a hard dollar way. Further,
identifying records, indexing and performing other
operations to maintain the hard copy inventory can
be expensive. As a result, for many records managers,
proactively gaining global records inventory control
depends on reducing the cost to solve the problem; that
is, aligning the expenses of hard-copy remediation with
the benefits remediation provides. For many organizations,
however, it is difficult to determine the mix of business
process, subject matter proficiency, and technology that
allows for improved management of the global hard copy
inventory.
The Setting
A multi-national company maintains operations for
numerous functions (R&D, manufacturing, accounting,
distribution, and sales) in different countries. The company
decided to consolidate operations both within countries
and across global regions. This required significant
business and personnel realignment. The Information
Technology group took on the task of moving and
consolidating electronic data sources (a topic for another
case study). However, there was no clear vision regarding
how to manage hard copy documents during the transfer
consistently. This was problematic with anticipated site
closings, employee separations, and general disruption.
Further, regulatory mandates in many of the countries
required the company to maintain certain hard copy
records for tax, export controls, intellectual property,
safety compliance, and other purposes.
At the outset the business had to address several
questions. Where were the global sites located? What
organizational moves were going to be made? How will
these responses impact the records inventory moving
forward? The company needed to understand the hard
copy records at ...

Information
Governance and Legal
Functions
C H A P T E R 8
Perhaps the key functional area that information governance (IG) impacts most islegal functions, since legal requirements are paramount. Failure to meet them can literally put an organization out of business or land executives in prison. Privacy,
security, records management, information technology (IT), and business manage-
ment functions are important—very important—but the most signifi cant aspect of all
of these functions relates to legality and regulatory compliance.
Key legal processes include electronic discovery (e-discovery) readiness and as-
sociated business processes, information and record retention policies, the legal hold
notifi cation (LHN) process, and legally defensible disposition practices.
Some newer technologies have become viable to assist organizations in imple-
menting their IG efforts, namely, predictive coding and g technology-assisted review
(TAR; also known as computer-assisted review ). In this chapter we explore the need ww
for leveraging IT in IG efforts aimed at defensible disposition, the intersection be-
tween IG processes and legal functions, policy implications, and some key enabling
technologies.
Introduction to e-Discovery: The Revised 2006 Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure Changed Everything
Since 1938, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) “have governed the
discovery of evidence in lawsuits and other civil cases.” 1 In law, discovery is an early y
phase of civil litigation where plaintiffs and defendants investigate and exchange
evidence and testimony to better understand the facts of a case and to make early
determinations of the strength of arguments on either side. Each side must produce
evidence requested by the opposition or show the court why it is unreasonable to pro-
duce the information.
The FRCP apply to U.S. district courts, which are the trial courts of the fed-
eral court system. The district courts have jurisdiction (within limits set by Congress
and the Constitution) to hear nearly all categories of federal cases, including civil and
criminal matters. 2
116 INFORMATION GOVERNANCE
The FRCP were amended in 2006, and some of the revisions apply specifi cally to
the preservation and discovery of electronic records in the litigation process. 3 These
changes were a long time coming, refl ecting the lag between the state of technology
and the courts’ ability to catch up to the realities of electronically generated and stored
information.
After years of applying traditional paper-based discovery rules to e-discovery,
amendments to the FRCP were made to accommodate the modern practice of discov-
ery of electronically stored information (ESI). ESI is any information that is created
or stored in electronic f.
Key Records Management Considerations During a Life Sciences Merger or Acquis...Everteam
Mergers and acquisitions occur regularly. In fact, 30% of world’s largest organizations are considering some merger or acquisition. The life sciences industry in particular is characterized by frequent merger and acquisition activity. In addition to mergers between large companies, smaller, early stage pharma and biotech companies are often purchased as their R&D efforts yield new drugs ready to go to market. Records Management (RM) is a critical consideration during M&A activity, because as systems are combined or decommissioned, the records need to live on and be accessible and managed according to regulatory requirements. By designing a RM strategy and solution that is effective, financially viable, and adheres to industry regulations before any M&A activity emerges, companies can make themselves not just more attractive, but more valuable.
Similar to Best Practices for Managing Archive Migrations (20)
To eliminate these risks and put IT back in control of the file-sharing process, organizations of all sizes should implement an enterprise-grade file sync and share capability that will meet the dual needs of: a) enabling employees to have access to all of their files from any device, and b) enabling IT to control the organization’s critical data assets.
The Need for Third-Party Security, Compliance and Other Capabilities in Micro...Osterman Research, Inc.
Osterman Research conducted a market research survey with organizations that had at least 50 email users and that had not definitely ruled out the possible use of Office 365. In fact, 5% of the email users in the organizations surveyed are currently served by Office 365, a figure that is expected to increase to 22% by May 2014.
More and more employees are bringing their own devices and preferred applications into the enterprise, creating what we call the BYODA (BYOD plus Applications) phenomenon. Workers’ behavior and expectations are contributing to the consumerization of IT, where lines of business and users themselves are having an enormous influence on the types of technologies and applications used. While employees expect anytime, anywhere access to their content to get their work done, their CIOs are now expected to support BYOD within their corporate environment.
Osterman Research conducted two surveys in February and March 2013 focused on Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) issues in small, mid-sized and large organizations, primarily in North America.

How the Cloud Can Make Government Archiving More Secure and Less ExpensiveOsterman Research, Inc.
Government agencies at all levels – city, county, state and Federal – have an obligation to retain important records sent, received and stored in their email systems. Because of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requirements, open records laws, “Sunshine” laws and similar obligations, government agencies must retain all of their relevant records, be able to find them easily, and produce them on demand in a relatively short period of time. Moreover, government entities – like any other employer – must also retain data for purposes of e-discovery and similar types of obligations.
This white paper explores the various obligations that government agencies have to retain email and other content, and explains the benefits of using cloud-based services to meet their archiving requirements. This white paper also provides a brief overview of Sonian, the sponsor of this white paper, and their relevant offerings.

Organizations of all types – small businesses, professional organizations, government agencies, associations, and larger enterprises – have statutory obligations to retain important records sent, received and stored in their email systems. Moreover, organizations of various types, including government agencies, must also retain data for purposes of eDiscovery and similar types of obligations. Use of cloud-based archiving solutions offers a secure, reliable, compliant and profitable option for the channel.

Organizations need highly secure authentication under IT’s control, coupled with an access method that is very easy for users – especially users on mobile devices. This executive brief discusses the problems with current authentication systems and offers an overview of a more advanced and more secure system of authentication.
Over the past several years, one of the most important trends to impact organizations of all sizes – but particularly mid-sized and large organizations – is for employees to use their own smartphones and tablets in the course of their work. The so-called Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) trend was initiated several years ago, often by senior executives who had purchased an Apple iPhone or an Android device and then requested their IT department to support it instead of, or in addition to, the mobile device that the company had supplied to them. Osterman Research includes as a key element of the BYOD trend the various applications that employees use as part of their work, such as personal file sync services.
Mobile devices are becoming an increasingly important component of the typical organization’s IT infrastructure. For example, Osterman Research has found that 32% of the corporate workforce in mid-sized and large North American organizations employed a smartphone in late 2011; these figures will grow to 41% in 2012 and 50% by 2013. This white paper discusses the results of an in-depth survey it conducted on MDM issues. The goal of this research was to understand the problems, concerns and other issues that organizations face when attempting to manage mobile devices and integrate them with email systems, databases and various applications.
This white paper discusses the important practices and technologies that any organization should implement in order to improve eDiscovery and drive its cost as low as possible. The paper also presents the results of a primary market research survey conducted specifically for it that highlights the key problems that organizations have with current eDiscovery practices.

While unified communications can clearly enable more efficient and more consistent communications across any platform, for users in any location, there are different approaches to implementing a unified communications system. A single-vendor approach, such as Microsoft Exchange in combination with Microsoft Lync, can provide a robust unified communications experience and can make users more productive. However, an open approach that leverages cloud-based productivity applications, such as Google Apps integrated with a software and hardware agnostic unified communication platform like Esnatech Office-LinX, permits the re-use of existing PBXs and other systems, and provides the necessary flexibility to allow organizations to adopt a wider variety of less expensive on-premise and cloud-based applications.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
