Cyren announced the launch of its new cloud-based email archiving service, created to protect business messages and simplify regulatory compliance.

The service is part of Cyren’s enterprise security platform, which integrates web security, email security, DNS security, cloud sandboxing and email archiving on a single globally operated Security-as-a-Service platform.

Lior Kohavi, Cyren CTO, said: “Our customers value our cloud expertise and are asking us to provide complementary services around email management.

“Cyren’s 100% cloud-based security platform allows us to quickly roll out new services and capabilities to protect our global customer base and meet their wider needs with speed and agility that simply isn’t possible with appliance-based infrastructures.”

Cyren’s email security and archiving services help email administrators and compliance officers reduce the time and labor involved in managing regulatory compliance with email management, protection, and retention in the cloud.

The latest release includes:

• Fast search and eDiscovery – provides search and eDiscovery that returns searches in less than two seconds, enabling governance, risk management and compliance (GRC) and legal teams to complete freedom of information and subject access requests in minutes.
• Tamper-proof storage – inbound, outbound and internal emails are saved in tamper-proof storage with audited user access to ensure email integrity for corporate investigations and litigation purposes.
• Ease of use – simplified user mailbox management removes the need for complex email filing, PST management, and mailbox size control.

Gartner noted archiving as a service (aka SaaS) has rapidly surpassed on-premises archiving as the preferred deployment model for most organisations, and sees over 80% of new or replacement email archiving implementations as being cloud-based.”
