Use Twitter with confidence

More and more businesses are realizing the value of connecting with clients via social media. Corporate Insight, which tracks financial services firms, says 79% are now using Twitter. The popularity of social platforms like Twitter stems from their facilitation of fast, effortless communication. However, without the right solution in place to govern its usage, social media puts organizations at risk of data loss, breach and noncompliance with regulatory mandates. Smarsh reduces these compliance and security risks to help employees communicate with confidence. Smarsh capture and archiving solutions for Twitter enable:

  • Comprehensive compliance: Smarsh captures Twitter data in near real-time—including messages, photos, files and videos. All content can be sent to the Smarsh Enterprise Archive for quick search and display, making supervision and reconciliation functions more efficient. Content is preserved in context to help meet SEC, FINRA, MiFID II and other regulatory mandates.
  • Monitoring and protection of Twitter content: All content can be inspected to prevent leakage of sensitive information, suspicious behavior and / or abusive language. With certain deployments, administrators can set up alerts to flag keywords across messages and in-file text to pinpoint any violations.
  • Automatic archiving and fast, effective supervision and e-discovery: Twitter content is captured in its native format along with metadata to provide a complete view of activities. Content, metadata and activities can then be retained in the Enterprise Archive for easy and efficient supervision and e-discovery. Content can also be sent to any third-party archive or ECM solution.
  • End-to-end security: Whether data is in transit or at rest.
