Zasio Adds New Web Browser Interface to Leading Electronic Records Management Software

BOISE, IDAHO – Zasio Enterprises is now offering their popular electronic records management software add-on*, Versatile ERMS, as a web browser interface in addition to the current desktop interface.

This new interface, nicknamed ERMS Web, allows users to capture and access electronic documents from any standard web browser – no install required.

“Integrating directly with Windows is immensely powerful and offers all kinds of opportunities for integration, but requiring a desktop installation is not an option in many cases. A browser interface for ERMS is just makes sense – it provides another option for easy deployment.” Warren Bean, Sr. Sales...

Personal Data Transfers Post-Privacy Shield

The European Court of Justice’s recent move to strike down the US-EU privacy shield agreement has upended the bilateral personal data transfer framework and pulled the rug out from under numerous American businesses who work with European customers’ personal data. But although the agreement was invalidated, there remain several steps to take and options to pursue that can enable US businesses to help maintain their operations.

The 2016 bilateral US-EU Privacy Shield agreement allowed US companies to agree that they would adhere to the privacy and personal data rules and standards of the EU, thereby providing an equivalent level of...

Artificial Intelligence: The Final Frontier in Records and Information Management

According to the European Commission’s Artificial Intelligence for Europe, “Artificial intelligence (AI) is already part of our lives – it is not science fiction.” From smart speakers to customer service, AI has found its way into our homes and businesses. One area of business where AI use is emerging is records and information management . As opportunities to use AI in RIM increase, what privacy implications, what unnecessary classification or retention, and what laws or regulations can information governance and privacy professionals expect to find in the future?

As the amounts of data increase, so does the headache in trying...

Data Protection Legislative Updates

Since the GDPR passed in 2018, we have seen an ongoing worldwide ripple effect, as other jurisdictions have begun passing their own data protection laws that mirror, or in many respects comply with GDPR requirements. Here are a few such new or upcoming laws worth noting:

 

Brazil – General Data Protection Law (LGPD) (Law No. 13,709/2018) – Approved in August 2018, the law originally was supposed to take effect on August 15, 2020. However, due to COVID-19 concerns, the majority of the law will not go into effect until May 2021, with the enforcement of sanctions beginning August 1, 2021....

What’s in Your Privacy Data Policy?

The records and information management world has experienced a gradual yet seismic ideological shift in recent years. Long gone are the days of thinking solely in terms of HOW LONG MUST WE KEEP this information. Today, companies also think strategically, practically, and with privacy legal compliance in mind when it comes to managing their records and information. In this day and age, special considerations such as big data and privacy increasingly drive initiatives. Companies are now asking an equally important question of HOW SOON SHOULD WE DELETE this information, as well as HOW MUST WE DISPOSE OF IT?

Why does...

Policy into Practice — Strategies for Operationalizing Your Records Retention Schedule

If you’ve been in the business of Information Governance for very long you have likely seen many debates or discussions about the best way to do retention scheduling. Common considerations include the ideal size, big buckets vs. small, departmental vs. functional, knowing and applying the appropriate laws, etc. After much time and toil, you may even have created the perfect records retention schedule. You received sign-offs, trained key users, and published it. Congratulations!

One year later, during your planned review, you find few, if any, are actually using it. How could that be? It has the perfect number of categories,...

Alert: New 10-Year Retention Requirements in Brazil for AML Related Activities

Institutions that are regulated by the Central Bank of Brazil take note. Effective July 1, 2020, the Central Bank of Brazil is increasing the record retention periods related to many Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and terrorist financing activities to 10 years. By moving from 5 to 10 years, this change sets Brazil on the high end of the global AML standard. See below for details and action items.

 

Significance of Change
For financial institutions, the AML record retention requirement often impacts and drives the retention period for the “client transactions” and “account” categories of records. Because these categories often contain...

Document Management While Working Remotely

Businesses in the United States and around the world are currently operating in unprecedented times due to COVID-19. Many businesses have had to become innovative and flexible. Possibly one of the biggest changes to how businesses function from day-to-day is the large number of employees working remotely. Remote work is not new, but many businesses have had to figure out how to transition their employees to working remotely.
