Does your company have a legally compliant method of backing up and storing emails? Creating an email retention policy is a very important part of your company's structure. Being prepared for any legal proceedings that might arise, or having important electronic records of transactions is only sensible when setting up your company's operations.
The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure state that every company in all industries must have a reliable means of backing up and archiving emails in the event that they are needed as evidence in a civil proceeding. This same law applies to paper documents as well, but was revised in 2006 to include electronic communications as well.
Older tape backup systems were meant to store data pertaining to hard drives and file servers. They cannot accurately archive and index emails, because there's no reliable means to retrieve the email data once it's been recorded. Tape systems often corrupt, or there are missing spots from in between backup cycles. You also can't guarantee that the emails aren't altered or tampered with.
