Unstructured Data Visibility
Create a searchable inventory and classification of unstructured content.
Overview
Unstructured data frequently sits across file shares, email archives and cloud collaboration platforms without a consistent inventory or per‑item classification. That lack of visibility prevents timely retention decisions, accurate access reviews and targeted remediation, increasing legal, compliance and security exposure.
Unstructured Data Visibility discovers, indexes and classifies content to create a searchable inventory and attach per‑item metadata for retention and access decisions. The scope is limited to file shares, email archives and cloud collaboration storage; it excludes structured databases, application logs and bespoke sources unless agreed, and it does not perform enforcement or remediation.
