Compliance Case Study
How Zeigler Companies Inc. found a worry-free and affordable way to manage its compliance obligations.
"We really didn’t want to invest in major infrastructure changes or add personnel - we needed a solution that required minimal maintenance – a plug-and-play option."
Bill Braun, Vice President of Information Systems.
First, they needed a policy.
Then came the hard part.
The Texas Credit Union League (TCUL) represents approximately 600 not-for-profit Texas credit unions and their seven million member-owners.
Following an IT audit in the fall of 2004, it was determined they required an electronic messaging policy. Defining the policy was simple – Bill Braun, TCUL’s Vice President of IT, used Fortiva’s Policy Builder, which is available at no cost and easy to use. The challenge was enforcing the policy, including specifics such as archiving all correspondence between HR and employees.
After reviewing all the options, TCUL decided that the best way to implement effective enforcement was email archiving.

Finding a one-stop, on-demand, worry-free solution.
The first decision was whether to go in-house or outsource. Investing in an in-house solution required major infrastructure changes, additional personnel, set up time and a lot of ongoing maintenance. The short and long-term costs were prohibitive, and the risks high. Outsourcing, on the other hand, was simple, cost effective and could be implemented in hours. After reviewing five outsourced email archiving solutions, TCUL chose Fortiva. Only Fortiva could meet all of their requirements:
- TCUL’s communication policy could be easily updated and automatically enforced from a web-browser window without involving the IT department.
- Burden on Exchange Server would be dramatically reduced. This meant saving time backing up data and improving business continuity.
- End users could easily access their own email archives in real-time from their Outlook windows, with no need to keep PST files.
- Legal discovery could be completed easily in minutes, saving weeks or months of time and lost productivity.
- All information was 100% guaranteed secure with Fortiva’s DoubleBlind Encryption.
With increased productivity, security and reduced risk, Fortiva solved all TCUL’s email archiving requirements
