ProStor Systems' InfiniVault Archive Appliance Meets Key
Compliance Regulations for Electronic Storage Media, Devices
Technical report prepared by Cohasset Associates concludes new
archiving system satisfies SEC, HIPAA and DOD requirements
BOULDER, Colo. – Nov. 13, 2007 – ProStor Systems, a leading developer of removable disk storage solutions, today announced 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.
CEO and President of ProStor Systems Steve Georgis said, "We specifically designed the InfiniVault as a flexible archive solution that consolidates and automates regulatory compliance. Based on the results of Cohasset's thorough evaluation, users can have added confidence in the InfiniVault's ability to ensure the immutability and security of their valuable business data."
Built around market-leading 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.
