In this session, we will share 6 different ways to simplify and/or automate metadata management even on extremely large content sets. We will share the tools and techniques we have used with our clients to make metadata management possible and provide real world examples as to how these techniques can be applied to your content.

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.

In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.
