PRIVACY ADVISORY SERVICE
Our Advisory Services team, with privacy specialists in areas such as data mapping, classification and retention, provides you with comprehensive support to mitigate risks associated with personal data and achieve privacy compliance. They will guide you through the process of assessing where you’re at, as well as the process of building a stronger privacy program customized to your organization.
IG Assessment Service
Establishing a program benchmark is crucial to growing your program and provides the opportunity to display measureable improvements to your stakeholders. Our expert IG consultants will methodically evaluate your program, assessing everything from organizational design and policies to workflow processes and information inventory analysis.
IG Program Development Service
IG program development is the next step in moving your IG program forward. Once you have a solid understanding of the current state of your IG program, our IG experts can help you create and implement a more robust IG vision.
IG experts will work with you to develop the two foundational aspects of your IG program: a cross-functional IG structure, including a steering committee; and enterprise-wide IG policies.
PHYSICAL CONTENT CLASSIFICATION SERVICES
Content classification is a vital aspect of managing the information lifecycle. In order to properly manage the disposition of your hardcopy records, they must be classified to your records retention schedule.
Iron Mountain’s comprehensive classification solutions utilize cost-efficient and data- driven processes to the furthest extent possible, and employ physical inspection for the remainder.
Electronic Content Classification Service
At Iron Mountain, our Electronic Content Classification and Data Remediation service leverages a range of platforms for classifying and remediating both structured and unstructured data stored on-premise, in the cloud or in hybrid environments.
Onsite Professional Services
You can have information governance experts placed in your organization to achieve specific RIM and/or IG goals. Our staffing services can meet the needs of both long-term projects and placement as well as consultative short-term projects.
Projects/staff placement include but are not limited to:
- Corporate information managers
- Records managers or analysts
- File room administrators
- Database coordinators
- Imaging support
