Binding archiving

Conserve the legal value of data over time

Oftentimes, the intact restitution of an original version of data is necessary, whether for legal or regulatory reasons. The authenticity of this data must be certified, even after the passing of years or decades. This can be guaranteed through the use of legally binding archiving solutions.

For example, an electronic legal document concerning the sale of a property contains all kinds of vital information – the location, price, description, etc. It is critical that this electronic document can be restituted intact at any given moment, even years after the deal closes.

We can also use the example of a transaction between two parties, governed by a contract that clearly defines the agreement terms. For the entire duration of the contractual agreement, an original certified version of the contract must be available for consultation. The contracting parties need to be able to rely on the integrity of the terms that this document describes.

If ever there is a need for litigation between the two parties, this document, which is certified as being true to the original, will act as evidence in court. Its legally binding nature depends on a constant guarantee of data integrity since creation.
