“Hybrid work has ignited an explosion of digital conversations – completely redefining how organizations transform their archive to an elevated communications intelligence strategy,” said Brian Cramer, CEO of Smarsh. “The new normal of remote work can be a huge advantage for employees, but it also creates tremendous regulatory and reputational risk for companies. Once used exclusively for personal communications, social tools are now becoming business tools, but people’s behaviors haven’t changed. As a result, staff are more relaxed about what they say and more likely to break regulatory guidelines.”

“Only Smarsh understands how to address this enormous challenge in a way that protects clients today and in an uncertain future. Investing in the technology and partnerships to collect the broadest range of communication types, analyze it for issues with AI/ML and leverage public cloud ensures we have the scale to process all the rich communications data in real-time, across the globe.” Cramer continued, “Regulations are changing quickly to address these shifts we are experiencing, and our customers are ready.”

Smarsh offers digital communications retention and oversight solutions for regulated organizations of all sizes, ranging from single-office registered investment advisors to the world’s largest global banks. Customers can leverage Smarsh cloud-native, AI-enabled SaaS solutions for compliance and e-discovery, among other use cases, and analyze all their communications data so they can spot regulatory and reputational risks sooner.
