TRUSTED DATA ARCHIVE
Journal Archiving
Microsoft environments still lack true compliant journaling. Exchange Online and M365 cannot store journal reports, leaving users exposed without an external, immutable archive.
Compliant Journaling for the AI Era
Updated SEC and FINRA rules continue to require complete, tamper-proof, metadata-rich records with preservation of BCC, distribution lists, and audit trails that Microsoft's native tools do not provide. Another problem is that Copilot and GenAI now surface millions of historical emails per organization, making unorganized legacy communications a major operational, security, and regulatory risk.
The Compliance Gap Microsoft Doesn't Solve
Microsoft Exchange and Office 365 are powerful email platforms, but they are not designed for long-term, tamper-proof archiving or comprehensive compliance. Microsoft explicitly states that Exchange Online mailboxes cannot be designated for journaling, creating a critical compliance gap for regulated industries. Zantaz's Trusted Data Archive directly addresses this by providing a dedicated archive for permanent, secure, and compliant storage of all emails.
Trusted Data Archive: The Solution
With our industry-leading journal archiving, our Trusted Data Archive serves as an organization's data intelligence, security, and retention-policy governance layer, making its data from Microsoft Exchange and 365 safe, scalable, searchable, AI-ready, and economically productive. Trusted Data Archive provides real-time journal capture, WORM or audit-trail retention, Azure-native compliance, and legally defensible search, ensuring regulatory adherence, AI safety, and reduced E5 dependency.
Solving Legacy Archive Problems
Other legacy archive solutions like Smarsh, EV Vault, Digital Safe, Global Relay, and Mimecast leave their customers with a laundry list of stagnant archive problems. Fortunately, Trusted Data Archive has the solutions:
- Slow, expensive, outdated → Fast, cloud-native, enterprise-grade
- Compliance gaps → Journaling + Trusted Data Archive
- Poor search → Advanced SOLR and IDOL search
- No AI integration → Model Context Protocol [MCP] ready
- Vendor lock-in → Smart Data Mirroring and no forklift migration with unlimited usage
Enterprise Archive Solution (EAS)
At the heart of the platform is Enterprise Archive Solution (EAS) – a compliance-grade archive refined over more than two decades and trusted by some of the most regulated organizations in the world. EAS was designed for environments where regulatory scrutiny is assumed, not occasional. It preserves what most systems quietly discard: the complete journal envelope containing critical metadata like BCC recipients, expanded distribution lists, and routing details.
Arcivium for Azure
Arcivium for Azure is the first truly Azure-native compliant journaling framework, combining the evidentiary rigor of EAS with the elasticity, scale, and architecture of Azure itself. It runs entirely inside the customer's Azure tenant, using native services such as Blob Storage, Azure SQL, and Azure Web Apps. Every message, Microsoft or non-Microsoft, is captured in real time and preserved with full journal integrity.
HPCA (High-Performance Compliant Archive)
For organizations not ready or permitted to move fully to the cloud, Zantaz offers HPCA, a streamlined, SMTP-based compliance archive designed for reliability, simplicity, and control. HPCA captures communications directly at the transport layer, eliminating the need for journal mailboxes and reducing architectural complexity.
Z Cloud Archive
For organizations that want compliance without owning infrastructure at all, Z Cloud Archive delivers the same core HPCA principles in a fully managed SaaS model. Z Cloud captures communications in real time, preserves them immutably, and provides browser-based discovery for legal and compliance teams with dramatically lower per-user costs.
Key Benefits
- More Secure: Aligned to SEC 17a-4, FINRA, FCA, MiFID II, HIPAA, and global regulatory requirements.
- More Searchable: Support investigations, litigation response, and corporate governance with full indexing.
- More Cost-Effective: Compression and deduplication significantly decrease an organization's licensing and storage costs.
- AI Safety: Ensures only policy-approved, immutable, fully contextualized data becomes part of enterprise AI memory.
Conclusion
Zantaz Trusted Data Archive ensures that every enterprise communication – email, message, attachment, or file – is captured before it can be altered, preserved in its original evidentiary form, and governed in a way that satisfies regulators, courts, and modern AI systems alike. This is not simply archiving for storage. It is archiving as institutional memory.
