BizCom Launches Hosted Email Archiving Library

RALEIGH, N.C.--BizCom Web Services, Inc., a leading provider of enterprise-class Internet hosting services, today introduced its new Hosted Email Archiving Library - an all-in-one solution for small- to medium-sized businesses that helps preserve vital business intelligence and ensures compliance with legal and industry requirements while reducing the costly burden of in-house management.

“Email has quickly become the main transport mechanism for all types of business documents and intellectual capital,” said Mark Wiener, President of BizCom Web Services. “As a result, many industries are now required to keep non-editable copies of most every email or attached document they receive or send. Our hosted Email Archiving Library is designed to help businesses and government agencies safeguard their important legal documents and comply with e-discovery and records retention policies, particularly those mandated by Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, and Federal Rules for Civil Procedures.”

“Emails have a life of their own,” declared Thomas Bookwalter, President of compliance consultancy FMDC, and noted authority on the integration of regulatory requirements and information technology. “BizCom’s email archiving solution is particularly robust and durable, and is one of the only solutions that co-locates archiving with the hosted email itself. Not only does this make enterprise-class archiving and retrieval affordable for small businesses, it also provides small firms with the robust chain-of-custody needed to meet many of today’s compliance standards.”

For a small monthly fee, BizCom houses email archives in a world-class data center and expertly manages all the technical details, freeing businesses to reap the full value of flexible, robust and feature-rich software. The BizCom solution provides:

• Comprehensive management and control - Captures, filters, encrypts, and organizes digital data; tags content based on relevancy, confidentiality, privilege, etc.; provides users with different logical views based on access rights; generates searchable audit trail.
• Powerful search, retrieval, and content-sharing capabilities - Enables discovery, audit, and work teams to define, save, and share complex, detailed search criteria that return fast, accurate, consistent results.
• Seamless, scalable distributed deployment - Provides open-standards interface for smooth, transparent service delivery across diverse legacy systems and applications; partitions archive into separate virtual libraries for multiple sites.

BizCom’s Email Archiving solution integrates the Transparent Email Archiving Library (TEAL) suite, which enables complete email retention, batch locking, rapid search, and complete detailed auditing - all delivered securely over the Internet via an add-in within Microsoft® Outlook client.
