ProStor Systems' InfiniVault Archive Appliance Meets Key Compliance Regulations for Electronic Storage Media, Devices

ProStor Systems announces that its InfiniVault archive appliance has successfully completed a compliance assessment by Cohasset Associates, one of the foremost consulting firms specializing in document-based information management.

Cohasset Associates concluded that the InfiniVault archive system meets all relevant requirements of SEC Rule 17a-4(f); the Health Information Protection and Accountability Act (HIPAA) security requirements for record confidentiality; and the record destruction requirements of the Department of Defense (DOD) Design Criteria Standard for Electronic Records Management Software Applications, Version 2.

The technical report is a rendered objective opinion by Cohasset Associates regarding the capabilities of the ProStor Systems InfiniVault archiving system in meeting the relevant requirements of governmental agency regulations and electronic record management standards. By implementing advanced archiving features that address dozens of worldwide regulations mandating long-term data preservation, including hardware-enforced WORM, AES256 encryption and digital shredding of files in an industry-standard data format, InfiniVault successfully passed the independent compliance review.

Built around RDX removable disk technology, ProStor's new InfiniVault archive appliance provides organizations with an intelligent archiving solution that delivers long-term data preservation, e-discovery and regulatory compliance in a single, integrated solution. The InfiniVault product suite combines the performance and rapid retrieval of fixed-disk archive solutions with the unlimited capacity, scalability and disaster recovery protection of removable disk media, in an all-in-one design that is far more reliable than tape and much lower cost than fixed-disk archive systems. With its removable disk cartridges, InfiniVault provides safe off-site archival storage for up to 30 years. Designed to ensure the fast discovery and rapid retrieval of files to support the needs of federal regulations and corporate policies regarding data retention, InfiniVault combines active archive and compliance intelligence with proven RDX removable disk to provide fast online access, scalable nearline retrieval and infinite offline storage in a single easy-to-use system.
