How you can ensure compliance management with Vaultastic

Regular proactive audits of email communication are crucial to mitigating conduct, reputational, and financial risks.

Organizations need to manage the risk related to information leakage and ensure regulatory compliance about supervision and reporting of email communications:

To ensure compliance, organizations often need the help of external experts, auditors, and enforcement agencies to review potential policy violations and decide the course of action.

How can you share critical and possibly classified email information with external people while maintaining privacy and confidentiality?

  • The integration of Vaultastic with Ideolve, Mithi’s team collaboration tool, can be of great help here.
  • The internal compliance team typically consists of an auditor with access to Vaultastic and who will follow daily, weekly, monthly routines or perform on-demand searches for objectionable emails to share with the other internal members and external auditors.
  • The internal and external compliance team members will have shared access to specific workspaces on the Ideolve tool.
  • The internal auditor will upload objectionable emails to the individual workspaces on ideolve and share those with the relevant people for deeper analysis and review. 
  • The team members will post comments and tag each other to collaborate and arrive at actionable steps to deal with the violation.
  • And this entire activity, all comments, and decisions are recorded permanently in Ideolve as an audit trail for future reference.
  • This document highlights the two-part process - the first is a one-time process of onboarding the compliance teams on Ideolve and Vaultastic. The second is the creation of proactive routines/SOPs to detect and manage (potential) policy violations.

  2. The internal auditor now creates workspaces for each category of compliance (e.g., “regulatory compliance,” “communication policy compliance,” “information leakage review”) to segregate the reviews and possibly the compliance teams too. This structure is as per the organization's policy.

  • The internal auditor now invites relevant internal and external auditors and team members to each workspace by adding their email ids. The members will accept the invites and create their Ideolve account to now be a part of the relevant workspace(s).
