Abstract

Digital societies and markets increasingly mandate consistent procedures for the access, processing and storage of information. In the United States alone, over 10,000 such regulations can be found in financial, life sciences, health - care and government sectors, including the Gramm - Leach - Bliley Act, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, and Sarbanes - Oxley Act. A recurrent theme in these regulations is the need for regulatory - compliant data management as an underpinning to ensure data confidentiality, access integrity and authentication; provide audit trails, guaranteed deletion, and data migration; and deliver Write Once Read Many (WORM) assurances, essential for enforcing long - term data retention and life - cycle policies.
