OTTAWA, Nov. 22, 2017 /PRNewswire/ - FileFacets, a
privacy compliance and enterprise analytics company, today
announces the appointment of European IT distributor Nuvias as its
sole distributor in EMEA. Through the partnership, FileFacets
aims to drive international expansion and meet growing demand for
its Enterprise ID data discovery products.
FileFacets Enterprise ID offers an affordable and scalable
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) online platform for companies of all
sizes. It performs advanced data discovery and content search of
structured and unstructured data within corporate networks,
servers, content management systems, email, desktops and
laptops.
"Data privacy and security have never been more important, and
businesses of all sizes are looking for practical, easy-to-use and
affordable data search and discovery tools," said Chris Perram, CEO
at FileFacets. "With its presence in over 20 countries across EMEA
and a proven track record in information security, this partnership
with Nuvias will allow us to take our Enterprise ID solutions to
major new markets."
FileFacets is already available through all EMEA regions, but
Nuvias will focus initially on the UK and northern mainland
Europe including DACH, The
Nordics, Hungary and Poland.
About 2.5 quintillion bytes of data is created every day. Yet a
recent Global Databerg Report suggested that 52 percent of all data
stored by organisations globally is 'dark' data, meaning its
content and value is unknown. Additionally, 33 percent of data is
considered redundant, which poses a serious threat given the EU's
new laws regarding GDPR. When the laws come into place in
May 2018, companies that neglect
their data will be fined 4 per cent of the previous year's annual
global turnover or €20m, whichever is the higher.
FileFacets' easy-to-deploy, hybrid-cloud solution identifies
sensitive and personal information, removes redundant data and
facilitates the secure transfer between data repositories.
Artificial Intelligence capabilities expedite the classification of
content and execution of business processes to handle personal
data.
"We are very pleased to announce this alliance and look forward
to working with one another to deliver this mission. We will be
working closely with our resellers to meet regional market
requirements and provide local support for FileFacets, and help
them scale," said Nuvias Group's EVP Cyber Security, Ian
Kilpatrick.
