EMC National Life Company (EMCNL) is a U.S. based life insurance company offering a variety of products to both individuals and businesses. They are represented by over 10,000 independent insurance agents in 44 states.

During a lengthy legal proceeding in 2005, EMCNL's legal department had encountered severe difficulty searching for and retrieving crucial email records. The process was time consuming and expensive. EMCNL realized the importance of maintaining an effective email archiving system.

With the rules governing the laws of record retention and e-discovery constantly being updated, EMCNL decided to be proactive and looked for a solution that ensures compliance with the latest legal rules.

Finding a fully managed, scalable and secure solution.

After researching several email archiving options, including in house solutions, EMCNL chose Fortiva. "Initially I was attracted to in-house products because of the privacy they ensure. However storage was a big concern to me. I did not know how much storage space would be required and I was uncertain about how to manage the growth as the archive became larger." Said Marc Comstock, Assistant Vice President and Technical Services Manager at EMNCL.

Fortiva provided EMNCL with everything they needed, including:

  • Guaranteed security provided by DoubeBlind Encryption.
  • Fully managed and scalable solution.
  • Real-time search and retrieval of archived data, easy accessed within Outlook or a Web browser.
  • Easy set-up and maintenance.

With Fortiva, EMNCL is now fully prepared to respond quickly to any legal discovery. They can now focus on their business, and not worry about keeping abreast of every new legal regulation surrounding their industry.
