Electronic File Management

With electronic file management, file cabinets are a thing of the past. The information highway is creating more data, metadata, sharing of data and there is no end in sight.  The proliferation of file repositories presents new challenges for governance, security and compliance. At the same time, organizations are seeking to lower the cost of staffing and administration around electronic file management. Furthermore new government mandated controls complicate data management and combined with more and more remote workers sharing data outside the corporate firewall, the IT department  is faced with what seems like an intractable set of electronic file management issues.
