Global leader in mainframe software Infotel Corp to sponsor the 2023 NAGARA Conference in Cincinnati, the country’s leading conference for government archives and records administrators.

Tampa-based global software vendor and IT consulting firm Infotel Corp. today announced its sponsorship of the 2023 NAGARA (National Association of Government Archives and Records Administrators) Annual Conference in Cincinnati from July 18-21 at the Historic Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza. Records and information management (RIM) professionals from local, state, and federal governments across the country will travel to attend four days of professional development workshops, learning sessions, and networking events, all in the name of privacy protection.

“This year’s NAGARA Conference comes at a crucial time in Enterprise Information Management as the threat of data breaches reaches an all-time high, and various data privacy policies from local, state, and federal legislators have put undue pressure on the professionals tasked with managing these organizational assets related to archiving,” said Jeff Castella, Infotel Corp’s vice president of software. “We are thankful for NAGARA and for the work they do to support these professionals, and we couldn’t be more excited to sponsor this annual conference in July.”

Data privacy, security, data governance, and compliance are perhaps the biggest issues in tech to emerge from the pandemic, and government agencies have huge targets on their backs in the eyes of cybercriminals. According to the most recent IBM Cost of a Data Breach report, the average cost of a data breach in the public sector was $2.07 million, up from $1.97 million in 2021. With many (if not most) of these industries critical to functioning governments and public safety, events like NAGARA are invaluable when it comes to educating and advancing the careers of RIM professionals.

With this year’s conference theme being “So Much to Discover,” the 2023 Nagara Annual Conference will be packed with educational opportunities geared to help RIM professionals meet the challenges of their rapidly changing industry.

At the 2023 NAGARA Conference, Infotel will be showcasing its latest data governance and records management package for organizations subject to complex regulations. Included in this package are Infotel’s two recent product developments, Arvitam™, a data archiving and housekeeping solution, and deepeo™, a data anonymization solution. Arvitam streamlines data compliance for RIM professionals with hundreds of international standards to enable digital archiving with strong legal proof of evidence — all on one platform. Arvitam protects confidential records with a digital safety box and ensures long-term, tamper-proof retention of digital assets.

Infotel’s deepeo is a digital anonymization solution ¦rst developed to help organizations comply with GDPR and now is on the leading edge of compliance software solutions for data privacy legislation across the globe. Deepeo’s robust system performs housekeeping tasks across hundreds of databases to manage data deletion according to users’ data retention policies.

The Infotel team will be on hand at NAGARA 2023 to answer questions regarding RIM and how their latest products can help alleviate the burden many RIM professionals deal with in a world of increasing regulations and cyber threats. Attendees are invited to stop by the Infotel booth, #27, during the conference to say hello and chat about any and all things related to archiving and records management.
