Press Release
Nayatek teams up with FaceTime to deliver comprehensive archiving, eDiscovery and
Compliance Solutions for Instant Messaging and Unified Communications
PHILADELPHIA and BELMONT, Calif - June 17, 2009 - Nayatek, the developer
of the next generation content archiving platform, Datosphere, and FaceTime
Communications, the leading provider of solutions enabling the safe use of Web
2.0 and unified communications in the enterprise, announced today they have
partnered to deliver a solution for comprehensive archiving, e-Discovery and
compliance for instant messaging and unified communications.
The Nayatek solution, integrated with FaceTime's IMAuditor, sets a new standard
for content archiving of business communication. Nayatek's' Datosphere is an
integrated content archiving platform built on a dynamic grid architecture
providing comprehensive archiving, storage management, e-Discovery, business
continuity and compliance functionality to ensure the security, integrity and
privacy of electronically stored information (ESI).The upcoming launch of the
Datosphere IM solution will be based on a deep level of integration with
FaceTime's IM Auditor solution which insures security, management and
compliance for unified communications - from presence and instant messaging to
conferencing and voice.
The integrated solution will ensure that all IM and unified communications
conversations, file transfers, and associated metadata can be logged, archived,
discovered and retained. The deep level of integration between IM Auditor and
Datosphere provides clients with more robust e-Discovery options as Datosphere
indexes a richer set of metadata and IM transcript information than other
solutions. Clients benefit directly in e-Discovery or internal investigation
scenarios as they can more quickly ascertain the context and appropriateness of
electronically stored information to the case at hand thus saving time, effort
and money.
According to FaceTime's October 2008 study, The Collaborative Internet: Usage
Trends, Employee Attitudes and IT Impacts, 51 percent of IT Managers said they
could not reproduce IM conversations in a timely manner. Thirty-eight percent
reported they have no such capabilities and 13 percent said they could do it,
but not in any practical time frame.
"Practicality is a key component of success with archiving and retrieval of
electronic communications," said Nick Sears, vice president of EMEA for
FaceTime Communications. "Nayatek's integration of FaceTime's IMAuditor
technology will greatly improve its customers' ability to easily archive - and
more importantly - quickly and easily reproduce - IM and UC conversations in a
timely manner to meet compliance and eDiscovery requirements."
"Today, organizations are increasingly hyper-connected to their clients,
suppliers and partners through IM, social networking and Unified Communications
platforms such as Microsoft OCS and IBM Sametime as they see it enhancing their
competitive posture. In addition to driving more IT complexity, the security,
management and legal and regulatory compliance implications are significant,"
said Scott Lehmann, senior vice president of Product Management of Nayatek. "We
chose to pursue a deeper level of integration with FaceTime's marketing leading
IMAuditor solution in order provide customers with a secure, encrypted
centralized archive for all of their ESI, including IM and UC data that would
allow them to easily reduce the business, legal and regulatory risk associated
with these forms of business communication," Lehmann added.
