Akonix L7 Compliance Manager
Manage SEC, NASD, HIPAA and SARBANES-OXLEY compliance

Akonix L7 Compliance Manager (L7CM) is a comprehensive solution for managing SEC, NASD, HIPAA, and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.  Built on the strengths of Akonix L7 Enterprise, L7CM provides organizations with a complete workflow for reviewing and auditing instant messaging conversations and demonstrating compliance to regulatory agencies.

Financial Services

NASD recently issued a Notice to Members stating that all member organizations must log, archive, and retain records of all instant messaging conversations.  Full Text

Also SEC Rule 17a-4 outlines the records to be preserved by certain exchange members, brokers, and dealers. Although traditionally covering only written agreements and guarantees, the rule has expanded its presence over the last 5 years to include new communication technologies such as e-mail, the Internet, and instant messaging. The recording requirements as dictated by the SEC generally include both internal / intra-firm communications as well as correspondence between broker / dealers and their clients. Rules 17a-3 and NASD 3010 additionally outline record keeping requirements and specifications for broker dealers.

Akonix L7 Compliance Manager allows organizations to comply with SEC/NASD regulations.  Akonix has also partnered with market leaders such as iLumin, Iron Mountain, Legato, Persist, and Zantaz to provide a comprehensive Email and Instant Messaging archiving solution.

 

Healthcare

HIPAA regulations apply to all organizations that have access to patient information.  These organizations include hospitals, clinics, insurance companies, labs, and many other types of organizations.

The use of public Instant Messaging within these organizations exposes confidential information, making organizations non-compliant. HIPAA also mandates that all electronic communication, including instant messaging be archived.

Akonix Compliance Manger protects healthcare organizations from leakage of confidential patient information, while also providing the archiving, reporting, and auditing infrastructure to verify compliance with HIPAA regulations.
