Press Release: Compliance and Regulatory Requirements Secured with Emailfort


...DataFort Provides Email Archiving For FSA And DPA Compliant Businesses...

DataFort, the leading UK provider of off-site data backup, today announced the launch of its latest product, EmailFort - designed to provide organisations with a read only email archiving facility that adheres to the compliance and regulatory requirements of the Financial Services Authority and Data Protection Act.

EmailFort provides organisations with a tool that forms part of its overall compliance management programme. EmailFort archives all company emails sent and received, these archived emails are only available to and readable by the organisations appointed Compliance Officer as read only files. This is where EmailFort differs from traditional email backup – email backup allows individual employees to delete emails from their own archives and can therefore not be used as an adequate compliance measure.

“As soon as an email is sent or received by a user it is encrypted, time and date stamped and sent off-site to two individual secure servers. The whole process is managed and maintained by DataFort’s software and security systems,” comments Gavin Smith, Founder and CEO of DataFort.
