February 16 – Global Information Governance Day 2017

SUBJECT 2017:  INFORMATION GOVERNANCE TO INFORMATION OPPORTUNITY:

CONSULT THE ARTICLE IN FRENCH

Today is the Global Information Governance Day! #GIGD occurs on the third Thursday in February and was established to raise the awareness of information governance.

WHAT IS INFORMATION GOVERNANCE (IG)?

IG is the activities and technologies that organisations employ to maximise the value of their information while minimising associated risks and costs.

IG is a holistic approach to managing corporate information by implementing processes, roles, controls and metrics that treat information as a valuable business asset:

  • to make information assets available to those who need it
  • to provide employees with data they can trust and easily access while making business decisions
  • to reduce the legal risks associated with unmanaged or inconsistently managed information

The information governance, after a preliminary analysis, results in a classification of different value levels of your information. The outcome of this classification is the identification of your information with engaging/probative/legal value. (for instance business contracts, policies…)

Breaking news on information governance in Europe – Trusted service provider for legal documents Labgroup first PSDC to be certified – #Archiving2.0

Since three millennia, the archiving of the writings is inseparable from its paper support. However, technological advances make it possible to perform native electronic records and to dematerialise paper documents.

The European regulation eIDAS (Electronic Identification and Trust Services) 910/2014, which has been fully implemented since the 1st of July 2016, has clearly demonstrated the willingness of member states to consider these technological advances and democratise digitisation by:

  • enhancing the security of electronic exchanges;
  • recognizing the universal value of the electronic signature;
  • granting the legal value to a digital document.

In Luxembourg the legal framework anticipates and supports this democratisation of the digitisation. The law of 25th of July 2015 on electronic archiving recognises the probative value of electronic copies of paper documents produced by a PSDC (Provider of Digitisation and Conservation Services) certified company to respect all the conditions of strict fidelity to the original and, moreover, presumption of conformity with the original.

As being the first company which is certified PSDC-DC in Luxembourg, Labgroup is certified as:

  • Provider of Digitisation Services, in other words Labgroup is empowered to create legal electronic copies of paper documents;
  • Provider of Conservation Services, which guarantees the integrity, confidentiality and persistence of electronic archives throughout their retention period.

What is the value of the PSDC status abroad? While Luxembourg has been a precursor with this new law, other countries have also embarked on the path of digital transformation by introducing an attractive legal regime for electronic archiving. However, no other country engages the state through the certification of service providers, such as the PSDC status in Luxembourg.

By archiving in Luxembourg, companies in Belgium or France could therefore both exploit their national legislation and benefit from the guarantees offered by the PSDC status.

Cloud based Applications – Seven Compelling Benefits, by Corelynx INC

Discover the newest article about “Cloud based Applications – Seven Compelling Benefits” by Paul Anderson, Corelynx INC. 

The worldwide cloud computing market is expected to reach the milestone figure of $19.5 billion by 2016. That is approximately 36% compound annual growth rate.
– Forbes

Given this rapid growth in cloud computing, it becomes essential to learn what are the main factors that are driving the popularity of cloud based applications and cloud based software companies. Cloud based applications bring several benefits over to a business.

Here are the 7 top benefits:

1. Improved Security

The beginning of cloud computing trend saw data security as one of its major loopholes. Consequent of which, both large enterprises and small and medium-sized businesses were skeptical of using cloud based applications and chose to rather stick with server-based programs. However, as cloud computing evolved, the loophole of data security got accurately filled up.

Today by all means, cloud based applications are equally secure because of the huge amounts of money that cloud providers invest into securing their site-specific infrastructure. This averts any kind of loss, illegal procurement or other damage to data stored in the cloud. So unlike locally-hosted software that is always vulnerable to virus, data loss, identity theft, intellectual property theft and so on, cloud based applications face none of these. …

QU’EST-CE QU’UNE ARCHIVE ? / WHAT ARE ARCHIVES?

Les archives sont des documents de différents types, de différents supports et de différentes périodes qui découlent de l’activité des organisations. Outil de bonne gestion et de gouvernance, elles sont conservées comme preuve ou témoignage du passé. Elles fournissent à la fois des preuves, des explications et des justifications aux actions et aux décisions passées et constituent des bases pour celles du futur.

L’optimisation de l’utilisation et la conservation de vos archives permettent d’améliorer votre efficacité et de rester « compliant » à tous les niveaux de votre activité quotidienne. Perçues comme un challenge pour les organisations, les archives représentent une plus-value.


Archives are documents of different types, age or support that are produced by an organization as part of an activity. Defined as being a management and governance tool for businesses, archives are witnesses of past events. They provide evidence, explanation and justification both for past actions and current decisions.
The optimization of the day to day use as well as the retention schedule of your archives improve your efficiency and enable to stay compliant. Mostly considered as a burden rather than an asset, archives represent an added value to your business.


LA LOI DU 25 JUILLET 2015/ LAW OF THE 25TH OF JULY 2015

Cette nouvelle loi reconnaît la valeur probante des copies électroniques de documents papier, dont elle autorise donc la destruction, et instaure le statut de PSDC (Prestataire de Services de Dématérialisation ou de Conservation). Les archives électroniques créées et conservées par une entreprise certifiée PSDC, bénéficient de la valeur légale d’original”.


This new law acknowledges the probative value of electronic copies of paper documents that therefore allows their destruction, and creates the PSDC status (Dematerialisation and Archiving Service Provider). The electronic archives, created and maintained by a certified company, benefit from the same legal value as the original document.

  • Optimisation de la circulation des archives,
  • Organisation des procédures de recherche et de mise à disposition,
  • Gestion des accès et de l’authenticité,

Executives Say Less Than 10 Percent of Business Processes will Rely on Paper by 2018, Xerox study

Xerox study shows the digital enterprise is on the horizon but there’s more talk than action. (survey of 600 IT decision-makers in large North American and Western European organisations.)

The “Digitisation at Work” report from Xerox shows the move from paper to digital processes is nearly upon us but many survey respondents admit they may not be ready for it.

The report found broad concern over paper-based processes, with cost (42 percent) and security (42 percent) cited as primary issues. Survey respondents predicted an average of only nine percent of key business operation processes will run on paper in the next two years.

For further information about the study, we invite you to download the press release.
