Government

Tools for Lotus Notes and Microsoft Exchange

Government branches and agencies are not immune to regulations and information retention requirements. A recent ruling of The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) widened its scope to include government organizations. Without clear records retention policies and archival procedures, many agencies could find themselves in front of a judge having to defend their actions (or lack thereof) regarding the ways electronic information is stored and searched.

Over 250 local, county and state IT departments have selected Sherpa Software to help them implement retention policies, establish archiving protocols, search content and manage the life-cycle of their electronic data. Our products are specifically suited for government by offering quick installations and deployments, easy-to-use interfaces, flexible architectures and robust feature sets.

Software Highlights
Archive Information » With large amounts of critical and confidential information passing through the email system, it is imperative that government agencies archive information to a secure location where it can be managed and protected for extended periods of time. Sherpa Software's archiving tools can easily archive data to any storage device visible to the network. Once the information is secured and indexed in an archive location, administrators can control the level of access rights provided to users, maintain audit trails of archive activity and enforce retention policies on archived content to purge data upon its expiration.
Search and Retrieve Content » The Federal Rules of Civil Procedures now holds government agencies to the same standards as private companies. Therefore, all agencies are required to know the location and the scope of all electronically stored information (ESI) and have the capability to quickly gather data in response to data discovery requests. Sherpa's e-discovery tools can effectively and efficiently search files, messages and attachments located in Exchange mailboxes, PST files, public folders, Notes mail files, Domino databases, local databases, instant message logs and common file storage areas (.pdf, .zip, .doc, etc.). Once located, multiple actions can be taken to address document discovery requests and reduce legal exposure.
Manage Local and Desktop PST Files» PST content is not easily accessible. When critical information is stored locally on desktop or laptop computers, or scattered around your network, finding PST files and collecting information can be a difficult and time-consuming task. Additionally, enforcing archiving, retention and deletion policies are much more difficult when data stores are widely dispersed and not centrally accessible to IT staff. Sherpa’s products provide content discovery, migration and PST management for desktop and network PST files by allowing administrators to create flexible rules that monitor the email infrastructure and automatically archive and enforce corporate policies.
Protect Document Integrity and Reduce Liabilities » The email communications that government employees compose, send or forward need to be in-line with compliance standards and confidentiality policies. Sherpa’s email management tools allow you to enforce management policies that govern how email is used by end-users. Prohibit users from editing/deleting emails with specific content and prevent inappropriate emails from being received or sent based on administrator-specified qualifications.
