NogaLogic's Version Classification
Users quickly generate multiple copies and versions of business documents. These copies and versions wind up all across the organization. They may be stored in the same location as the original under a different filename—or in another location under either the same filename or a different one. For example, a user may copy a PDF from a secure server and keep it in a personal file on his or her local fileserver for easier retrieval in the future.
Discovering all copies and versions of a document is important for several reasons:
- Copies, versions and related documents of original files containing sensitive content may not have the same permissions as the original files
- Unauthorized or improperly managed versions of files may result in users working with inaccurate or out-of-date information
- The proliferation of copies and versions may result in non-compliance with regulatory and corporate mandates
- Waste of storage infrastructure, and waste of management of unnecessary files
- A better understanding of how certain types of information are being legitimately copied or changed can help define effective business processes and policies
NogaLogic automatically finds all copies, versions and related documents of every document in your data environment—regardless of file name, format or location. It even highlights all the differences between versions and identifies changes. This feature enables you to easily track the lifecycle of any document, quickly detect information security risks, and better understand exactly how information assets are being used, and where they are stored across your organization.
