The U.S. Postal Service has chosen Veritas Technologies’ software platforms for the modernization of its data compliance system in a potential seven-year, $70 million contract.
The company said Tuesday that Veritas Enterprise Vault, Merge1 and eDiscovery support products will be implemented in the agency’s legal department in an effort to reinforce its regulatory and litigatory structure.
Enterprise Vault works to reduce an organization’s data footprint by automatically archiving and retaining data on premises, in a cloud environment, or a hybrid configuration of both. It is fully integrated with Merge1, which is designed to capture high-risk and other information and identify possible compliance risks.
Veritas’ eDiscovery platform is an end-to-end search engine built for large-scale, dataset-driven processing.
“We’re thrilled and confident in our ability to now also provide the US Postal Service and its legal department tools to streamline and expedite its eDiscovery workflow while reducing risk in an increasingly multi-cloud world,” said Kevin Youngquist, vice president for U.S. public sector at Veritas.
