StoredIQ Partners With NewsGator to Bring Information Governance to Social Computing

Today we want to introduce you to an exciting new StoredIQ partner, NewsGator, a social site provider for Microsoft SharePoint and Office 365. As enterprise knowledge continues to grow in size and complexity, organizations need solutions that intelligently identify risk and govern information—especially social business content. The aim of our partnership is to confront this growing challenge so that companies can adhere to policies, regulations and litigation demands while collaborating effectively.

“Typical governance solutions haven’t kept pace with the growth of social data, the evolution to a collaborative environment, or the multitude of collaborative content types. StoredIQ’s Platform helps NewsGator Social Sites 2010 customers manage this risk in an efficient and cost-effective way.”

-Christine Taylor, Analyst, Taneja Group

Social business and collaboration data is as important to an organization as traditional enterprise data contained in email and file shares, and it requires all the governance, risk management and compliance capabilities of traditional enterprise communication methods. StoredIQ provides a holistic information management solution for both traditional and social business data, without any additional burden on enterprise business users.

Addressing the myriad of legal, records management, and compliance issues that arise when social computing comes into play can be complex. Regulations are plentiful and violations are expensive. It is critical that companies consider their strategy for supporting secure collaboration within the structure of their security policies and also within the context of existing federal regulations. StoredIQ’s partnership with NewsGator ensures that collaboration flourishes and enterprise security interests are proactively protected.
