The Wall Street Journal published an article on email archiving in Monday's edition. Nothing groundbreaking, just a quick story about how an inability to produce emails in a timely fashion has burned companies in the past.
The new piece here is the fact that the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure took effect at the end of last year which applies strict guidelines to storing and producing all electronic data that is created within an organization. This is a firm encouragement for not just heavily regulated and public companies to manage their information better, but for all companies to archive communications and be able to produce them in the event of a litigation request.
