Regulations often dictate what content must be managed. Yet those regulations do not tell you how to do content management.

 

A major problem for IT decision-makers is that regulatory and industry agencies do not approve, validate or recommend IT solutions. In fact, the only IT compliance-related law among the 2,000 which stipulate a specific archival method is SEC 17a-4, which calls for the use of permanent Write Once Read Many (WORM) media.

 

The Lighthouse Content Management team builds IT compliance-ready solutions based on the latest server and storage hardware, and compliance-enabled software. By integrating content management systems, email, and workflow infrastructures with sound, scalable records management technology, our customers are assured that stay compliant with government and industry regulations and procedures.

 

For most mid- to large-companies, IT compliance regulations greatly influence their Content Management needs. As a result, our Content Management Assessments often lay the groundwork for understanding the customer’s full IT compliance requirements.
