Archive Manager for Files 8.9 - ArchiveWeb Guide

Compliance

ArchiveWeb provides the ability to manage user access to archived files on a network share. Users must accept the security policy to be able to open archived files.

As an administrator or a user with the appropriate permissions, you can define a policy condition, agreement term, and reminder. You can define notification templates for Access Denied and Reminder messages and see a list of all users with the date of acceptance of conditions and status.

Users are notified by email when access to a protected archive file is denied and when the policy consent expires.

info

NOTE: Email notifications are sent only once. It is recommended that the administrator should send an email to all first-time users who are registered in ArchiveWeb to accept the policy agreement.

General Data Protection Regulation

ArchiveWeb now supports General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regulations.

Retention

Users with the requisite permission can create a retention change request for archived Exchange and Files items from its context menu. When a request is created, approvers get an email notification and can review the request. Users who created a request are informed through an email notification once an approver has processed the request. Users and approvers can track the requests in ArchiveWeb from the Retention tab. Users and approvers can see open, approved, denied requests and request history. Additionally, approvers can export all items from a request to a ZIP file, deny the entire request and approve all or selected items from the request.

To use all retention features, a working SMTP server is needed, however SMTP is not mandatory for retention functionality. The SMTP service is used to send notification emails to approvers and retention requesters.
