Case Study
Clearing out old, unnecessary records at an international financial institution
In the financial services industry, a large institution grappled with the lack of a centralized records management solution, leading to outdated unstructured records—like ad hoc spreadsheets—being retained beyond their life expectancy. This created regulatory risks, excessive storage costs, compliance issues, and retrieval difficulties due to inconsistent taxonomy. Iron Mountain Information Governance (IG) Cleanse software transformed operations by cleaning up over 10 million files spanning more than 6TB of data. It reduced risks and costs, boosted compliance, and streamlined access, enabling efficient governance of digital assets under intense regulatory scrutiny.
