Catelas eComms Supervision, Surveillance & Investigative Suite
For Investigations
When conducting an investigation, only the meta-data of the messages are ingested and analyzed in the Catelas platform. Our integration with your Archive is leveraged to pull and review full content as needed or pst/nsf’s are loaded. This not only saves on storage & operational resources, it also removes the regulatory risk associated with having two distinct repositories of content which need to be synched at all times.
For Supervision & Surveillance
In this case, the full content is ingested from corporate email, Bloomberg Messages, IM & Chat, social media and internal IM. The full content is kept for 90 days during the Compliance supervisory cycle, while the associated audit trail is kept for 5-7 years as regulations dictate. After that the messages are retrieved from the archive as needed.
