Compliance Reports Module
Businesses today are faced with a growing demand of spending valuable resources to keep up with a myriad of compliance regulations for monitoring, managing, and disclosing operational information and for safeguarding their client information. No matter how you slice it, businesses have to account for compliance, and as such, are increasingly relying on their Information Technology infrastructure to ensure compliance.
To the IT department, compliance means that you need to know exactly who has access to what data, who has made what changes, and when those changes were made. As an IT professional, you also need to be able to report on user activities. If you can't, you need to be able prove that you took corrective action. Storage administrators normally have access to all this information, but spending hours or days manually gathering this data with spreadsheets and home grown scripts is not an effective use of anyone's time. In addition, we have found that auditors prefer system-generated data as opposed to hand generated data — for obvious reasons. Servergraph can easily create flexible policies to monitor, track and generate the type of reports that auditors require.
Servergraph gives customers the ability to define requirements and constraints in their service level agreements (via our compliance reports module), and apply them to their everyday business needs. Servergraph runs reports based on a customizable rules engine, then provides a scorecard supporting the user-defined information. Servergraph technology not only enables IT managers to give executives a clear picture on all backups and provide the necessary assurance that data is recoverable, but also shows where the data is being backed up through a very intuitive interface.
