Event Summary
April 7, 2008 -- Trustwave launched archiving capabilities for its mailMAX e-mail security service. The new archiving capability will allow Trustwave’s mailMAX users to archive inbound, outbound, and internal e-mail securely and retrieve e-mails promptly when necessary. Clients will have full access to their archived e-mails during their selectable retention period.
Analytical Summary
• Current Perspective: Slightly positive on Trustwave’s new e-mail archiving option for its mailMAX service, as the company can deliver this new service as a natural extension to its existing e-mail solution.
• Vendor Importance: Moderate to Trustwave, as the company needed to exploit the current market demand for e-mail archiving solutions required by government and industry regulations, and it can expect to see a revenue bump by catering to its existing mailMAX service base of clients looking for this service from a single vendor.
• Market Impact: Moderate on the managed storage market, because several other companies already offer e-mail archiving. While Trustwave’s incorporation of Microsoft Active Directory is a good business move, it is not the first (nor the last) to embrace this service.
