ZL Technologies Attending Multiple Government Events to Highlight the Needs of Federal Information Governance

SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 10, 2014) - ZL Technologies, Inc. (ZL), a leader in unified unstructured Big Data management for large organizations, has recently embarked on a multi-event engagement tour focused on the specific needs of data management and security within government entities. The federal space is unrivaled in its overwhelming data volumes and exacting protocol for long-term information governance, and has demanding requirements that can only be addressed by immensely scalable infrastructure. With the ZL Unified Archive® (ZL UA) providing an extensive record of eDiscovery, records management, storage, and search capabilities to enterprise-class organizations in both the private and public sectors, the company is uniquely suited to address pressing issues facing federal timelines and data management goals.

For government entities racing to meet electronic Freedom of Information Act (eFOIA) requests from the public, DoD 5015 security requirements, and ongoing deadlines for the Managing Government Records Directive, mismanagement of unstructured data can mean much more than an inconvenience. It has become increasingly clear that ad hoc solutions and data "silos" for specific functions such as records management and eDiscovery are falling short of their original roles and prevent the effective aggregation and search of data, limiting agencies in their ability to serve the public and achieve their own management objectives.

Given that the government is tasked with protecting and maintaining invaluable public and historical records in addition to its own daily business items, there is an overwhelming need for consolidated and secure management of items such as documents and electronic communications in federal agencies. The ZL Unified Archive, built from the ground up to offer consolidated control of all unstructured content, allows unparalleled search and governance capabilities for the billions of unique data copies which today's federal agencies must manage.
