One of the biggest challenges facing storage executives today is the out of control growth of unstructured data. Get it wrong and your CEO could land in jail or your company could lose billions from lawsuits. While everyone is rightly framing this issue in terms of Sarbanes-Oxley and litigation risks, little attention is given to the fact that it will be virtually impossible for organizations to truly gain control of unstructured data without the ability to auto-classify data at the point of creation or use. Unfortunately the technologies and processes available to auto-classify content are immature and often unreliable or inadequate, meaning companies remain exposed. 

As a result of participating in this session, attendees will be able to: 

• Develop an understanding of the new organizational tensions storage administrators will encounter
• Gain tools to communicate the problem to executive management
• Identify how to address key areas of exposure immediately
