As digital transformation accelerates, the explosion in data has created compliance challenges for enterprises, especially those with remote workers. Increasing regulations, ransomware threats, and data complexity have made information governance a strategic imperative for business. To ensure compliance and effectively respond to legal inquires, it is essential for today’s businesses to sort, discover, and act upon data quickly.
