A security team wants to preserve archived events in a regulated environment. Which option best meets data storage needs for accountability and compliance?
Deploy a dedicated archival workflow with timed phases to store data in secure offline systems
Load all archived data onto a real-time platform for unscheduled purges
Retain logs in a local buffer for a few days to simplify regular file maintenance
Forward data to external providers and discard local files after a short interval
In regulated environments, compliance mandates long-term, structured data retention strategies. A dedicated archival workflow with timed phases ensures data is securely stored and traceable, which supports both accountability and post-incident investigation. In contrast, short-lived buffers, unstructured purges, or reliance on third-party storage weaken the chain of custody and risk non-compliance with audit standards.
