AXS-Link for Microsoft Exchange™

E-mail Archiving and Management to Meet the Demands of
E-discovery and Compliance

Overview

With the ever-increasing use of e-mail in litigation, organizations, no matter what industry they are in, will, at some point, be forced to facilitate their response to discovery requests. Originally developed for storage and improved system performance, e-mail archives now need to address court requirements including retention of all available records subject to the discovery request, a quick response to the discovery order and the ability to establish record trustworthiness.

AXS-Link for Microsoft Exchange extends the comprehensive records management capabilities of the AXS-One Compliance Platform to Microsoft Exchange e-mail. The AXS-One Compliance Platform provides a central archive to facilitate the storage, retrieval and policy-based management of all electronic records including Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Notes e-mail, instant messages, desktop files, SAP data, system reports and much more. With
AXS-One Rapid-AXS, the company’s patent-pending technology, corporate counsel can search across high volumes of e-mail in a matter of seconds, not days, and, with AXS-One Case Management, manage the discovery process — from searches, the review of search results and legal holds on records to packaging for production to third-parties. And, with AXS-One Retention Manager, an e-mail’s lifecycle is automatically managed and audited to provide a full process chain of custody and establish record trustworthiness. Organizations can even mitigate the risks of electronic messaging including contractual lawsuits, sexual harassment claims, exposure of confidential information and infringement of regulations like NASD 3010 with AXS-One Supervision.

E-mail Archiving Made Easy

E-mail archiving is done automatically in the background. User participation in the archiving process and the annoying “mailbox over the limit” notices are no longer necessary. In fact, PST files can be eliminated. Users retrieve archived e-mail in their mailbox just like they retrieve e-mail from the Exchange server with no email client plug-in installation required.
