Out with the old
In today’s fast-paced digital world, businesses are generating more and more data every day. To effectively manage this growing data, many organisations are turning to cloud-based solutions such as Office 365. Older, historic storage solutions such as Network Drives are inherently hard to manage and have high storage costs due to being stored on-premise. However, migrating data to the cloud from traditional solutions is not an easy task.
The risks posed to an organisation when moving or storing personal data, can be detrimental if not handled correctly. For this reason and to ensure compliance with GDPR, Dufrain has developed a unique accelerator – ControlTower. This Unstructured Data Accelerator enables businesses to safely and effectively migrate data to the cloud at pace.
How does ControlTower migrate data?
ControlTower is designed to ANALYSE, EXTRACT and MIGRATE unstructured data from locations such as on- premise network shares, to the cloud. ControlTower includes features such as data mapping, data validation, and error handling, ensuring that data is migrated safely and accurately with a full audit trail.
Unstructured Data is used daily by employees and ControlTower understands this, ensuring that the safety and security of this information in transit is of top priority.
To enable the Data Migration feature in ControlTower, a location is required to be fully scanned by our compliance and regulatory modules. These modules will create an interactive inventory of your data, allowing you to understand and analyse the information before selecting what data you want to migrate.
One of the key benefits of the ControlTower is its ability to handle complex data migrations at scale. For example, the platform can handle migrations involving millions of files and folders, from multiple sources at once.
Advantages to cloud storage
Deciding to migrate your data using ControlTower enables you to leverage these powerful cloud-based tools. By using SharePoint & Teams within Office 365, Dufrain can use their expertise to configure Microsoft Compliance Center (Purview) to keep your data within compliance, without the need for manual intervention. The benefit of using Dufrain to do this is that the information extracted from ControlTower directly feeds into the set-up of these tools, resulting in a faster and more accurate setup.
Controls can be implemented across SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive and Exchange to match your Data Retention Schedule.
