Imation Secure Data Discovery

To identify and safeguard high-value data

Imation Corp. announced the introduction of Secure Data Discovery, an interactive software tool that helps organizations identify their high-value data and determine the most efficient way to store and protect that data.

Secure Data Discovery is available on company’s website.

By implementing and using Secure Data Discovery, organizations can assess the value of their file data based on the ages and types of files they have – the factors that Imation found in recent IT user surveys to be most directly related to data value – and their IT system preferences. Secure Data Discovery provides a report, analyzing how many of the organization’s files are considered high-value data, how much disk space those files use and how much primary storage capacity can be saved by offloading less frequently accessed high-value data to an Nexsan Assureon secure archive solution for long term protection. Secure Data Discovery users can download and save their analysis reports, and Imation and its channel partners will be able to offer consultative assessments to discuss their results and alternative best practices for protecting high-value data and driving storage efficiencies.

With our recently launched Secure Data Movement Architecture (SDMA), we’re working to give organizations the most comprehensive and innovative framework to safeguard and protect their most important information assets anywhere and anytime,” said Mike Stolz, VP marketing and technical support, Nexsan solutions, Imation. “It’s essential that these organizations understand which of its information assets are the most important to its operations, have the right digital tools to assess their infrastructure and then optimize its storage to safeguard that data. Secure Data Discovery helps them assess the scope of challenges they face, because it identifies high-value data and then helps them think differently about their storage priorities.

Identifying high-value data, and figuring out what to do with it, are two of the biggest challenges facing organizations today,” said George Crump, president and founder, Storage Switzerland. “The Imation Secure Data Discovery tool provides end users with an easy solution to help identify where their high-value data resides, enabling them to better manage and safeguard it from data loss.

There’s so much disparate data in organizations today and more being created all the time, but there are so many priorities for IT administrators to focus on. Classifying and sorting that data doesn’t often rise to the level of a pressing need, but we’re always amazed at how much efficiency and value these activities unlock within data centers,” said Joe Cimino, CTO, VitalNetix, Imation gold partner based in Philadelphia, PA. “Secure Data Discovery makes it easier than ever for administrators to truly understand their data. With that knowledge, they can transparently and non-disruptively move data to the right storage system through SDMA, provision their capacity for optimal efficiency and rest easy knowing their data is in the safest place it can be.

SDMA gives organizations a holistic approach to actively manage their high-value data files and protect them from tampering, destruction, loss or leakage through their entire lifecycle. Nexsan Assureon secure archive solutions and IronKey secure storage solutions are two critical components of SDMA that are available and in use today. The Assureon family of solutions provides high levels of security and integrity for archive data and can drive optimal organizational efficiency that reduces operational data management costs. Meanwhile, IronKey mobile storage solutions enable users to securely access their workspaces and files remotely while adhering to corporate IT standards.
