Today more than 90% of business records are in digital format. This digital information is scattered throughout the organization –or even outside the organization’s walls- and is highly vulnerable to manipulation. Obtaining legally sound evidence to prove something has been done –or that something has not occurred- is an immense challenge for organizations, auditors and lawyers.

Compliance, regulations and standards claim for protected sensitive data and audit trails

Organizations are increasingly suffering the burden of searching, centralizing and securing audit data (e.g. web services audit trails) due to legal and regulatory compliance. These efforts are dramatically increased when this sensitive data needs to be defended for sustaining a legal case. Kinamik Secure Audit Vault helps achieving compliance, thus reducing costs and complexity usually related with these processes.

The threats are moving inside the perimeter: the insider threat

There is a growing risk of malicious or unwanted manipulation, especially from the inside. This insider threat applies not only to disgruntled employees but also to former employees, contractors, temporary workers, consultants and outsourcers. The best way to deter and minimize insider threat is by providing full and provable accountability for the actions of all users (even the most privileged ones), using tamper-evident audit trails, and keeping these secured audit trails in an independent and centralized audit vault.

Forensics and Courts of Law: Proving the authenticity of the evidence

Having a proactive forensic readiness approach will help your organization lower e-discovery costs, specifically when dealing with key aspects such as building a case and justifying the evidence gathered. Kinamik aids in establishing a forensic readiness approach by building an independent and dedicated Secure Audit Vault. This way you can reduce costs in internal investigations and lower the workload in reviewing and analyzing.
