Digitally Transform Your Institution for the New ‘Rs of Education’

Risk:

Mitigate the risk of record loss or degradation, whether it be data theft, human error, or natural disaster (floods, fires, microbursts, “damage” from rodents, we’ve truly seen it all!). 

Regulation: 

Secure and structure your documents to ensure compliancy with FERPA, HIPAA, and your applicable Department of Education and State Archives, and adjust accordingly as new guidelines emerge.
