PORTLAND, Ore., September 23, 2015 – Companies of all sizes are increasingly required to retain, quickly search, and supervise electronic communications to meet regulatory compliance and e-discovery obligations. To help meet customers’ evolving compliance requirements, Smarsh^®, the leading provider of hosted archiving solutions for compliance and e-discovery, today announced the release of an enhanced version of its cloud-based Web Archiving solution.

Customers use Web Archiving to retain web content from any point in time in an indexed, search-ready state. The latest version introduces an enhanced supervision workflow that enables organizations to easily monitor and track changes in content, and document reviews of archived web pages, combined with a new user interface designed for efficiency.

“With the latest version of Web Archiving, we’ve simplified and strengthened the review of website content for customers who need to regularly monitor and produce it for regulatory examinations, audits or litigation,” said Stephen Marsh, CEO and founder of Smarsh. “Web Archiving is an important offering of ours that is growing at 90% year-over-year. More companies recognize that archiving web content – alongside email, social media, instant messaging, text messaging and video – is a critical component of a comprehensive information governance strategy.”

As part of the enhanced supervision workflow, users can easily document content status (“reviewed” or “open”), flag content for further review or as a violation, and add notes. Statuses and flags can be updated one at a time, or in bulk, and used as search criteria (for example, a reviewer can search for pages annotated with a specific tag). In addition, an audit trail documents all review activities and actions taken, so customers have evidence of supervision.

Whether a customer needs to review and supervise web content for regulatory and compliance capture, e-discovery, or business intelligence and corporate heritage purposes, Smarsh is the trusted leader in archiving of the modern web, including Web pages, blogs, intranets, RSS feeds and more.
