Protecting intellectual property is a key concern at Guangdong Telecom, but its legacy Lotus Domino messaging environment didn’t enable the company to control distribution of intellectual property assets via email. The organization implemented a discovery and retention management solution from Symantec. The company’s newfound ability to search the contents of outgoing and incoming messages has resulted in a significant change in employee behavior, while saving IT staff 3,100 hours per year.
