Information Management Leader Archive360 and Legal GRC Software Innovator Exterro Announce Strategic Partnership

 NEW YORK, August 30, 2022 -- Archive360™, the archiving and information management leader trusted by enterprises and government agencies worldwide, and Exterro Inc., the preferred provider of Legal GRC software specifically designed for in-house legal, privacy, and IT teams at Global 2000 and AmLaw 200 organizations, today announced a partnership to cut customer costs and increase security in the vital discipline of data compliance. The agreement covers managing, searching and defensibly producing information in compliance with organizational and regulatory policies, regardless of data volume, number of users and workloads processed. Through this arrangement, Exterro will leverage the scalability, security and flexibility of the Archive360 platform so that its customers can access all relevant data in the Archive360 repository directly from the Exterro application. Among other benefits, customers can apply In-Place Preservation to protect and secure electronically stored information (ESI) from accidental deletion required for litigation prior to collection, analysis, review and production.

“Our partnership with Exterro creates significant value that addresses the needs of our joint customers,” said Robert DeSteno, co-founder and CEO of Archive360. “The combination of Exterro’s end-to-end e-discovery solution with Archive360’s unified information management platform gives organizations greater control of their data preservation and data management. Our technology integration builds on our core competencies of Zero Trust data protection and massive scalability, while extending the capabilities we can now offer organizations.”

Under the terms of the agreement, Exterro will leverage Archive360 APIs to provide a seamless experience to their customers, who can review content in Archive360’s archive directly from the Exterro E-Discovery Data Management application. In the archive—which onboards petabytes of data from multiple sources, securely stores it in its native format, and applies management policies to ensure compliance—organizations can quickly identify the most important data, place them on legal hold, and with only one-click, compliantly manage collection. This significantly reduces the time, costs and risks of early case assessment.

“As the role of the corporate legal department evolves and expands to meet growing legal governance, risk and compliance obligations, the ability to be able to quickly identify, preserve and respond to requests for data becomes critical” said Bobby Balachandran, Founder and CEO at Exterro. “The level and ease of access to the vast amounts of data stored in the Archive360 platform delivered by this partnership ensures our joint customers are able to get to the facts of every matter quickly, defensibly and at lower costs, driving productivity and efficiency gains across their organization. We are thrilled to be working closely with Archive360 to deliver this solution to the market”
