Compliance | GDPR | Privacy
GDPR, the new EU data protection regulation, is just around the corner.

Organizations have a decision to make relative to the large volume of documents in existing legacy systems. The challenge is that organizations may have millions of documents. Which should be moved and which should stay where they are? What can be safely archived or deleted? According to a Forrester survey, only 7% of organizations surveyed have migrated all content to new ECM systems. The vast majority – 87% – retain some or most legacy content remains in old systems. Updating your infrastructure to take advantage of the benefits of a more modern-cloud-based structure requires a content integration platform – and one that is flexible enough to evolve over time.
