The core functionality built into the InfiniVault archive appliance makes it ideal for regulatory compliance. ProStor's integrated Archive Compliance Engine provides a complete audit trail for every file to create a chain of custody report, while content addressable storage functionality verifies all content to ensure the integrity of the data. The combination of flexible retention management, WORM throughout the system for unalterable files, data encryption to meet privacy requirements and digital "shredding" for secure file deletion makes the InfiniVault a simple, automated solution for most organizations that need to conform to government and industry regulations. Additionally, the rapid file search and recovery enabled by the RDX® removable disk technology meets the requirements of Federal Rules of Civil Procedures in legal holds and e-discovery. Privacy is assured with InfiniVault managing all encryption keys associated with each individual file.
InfiniVault archive appliance product is sold through a network of high-value resellers. FDMI from BridgeHead will be fully supported and available through the same ProStor reseller community.
