Behavox's Enhanced Multi‑Layered Deduplication Cuts Compliance Costs and Accelerates Time to Insight
Article content LONDON & MONTREAL — Behavox, the leading provider of AI-powered compliance and archiving solutions, today announced significant enhancements to the Behavox Intelligent Archive, designed to dramatically reduce cost, improve operational efficiency, utilising superior deduplication technology to reinforce Behavox's leadership in delivering modern regulatory archiving of communications and transaction data. Unlike competing products, Behavox helps firms manage costs and risk by effectively removing duplicative content, r esulting in review costs being slashed by as much as 30%. Article content Data Duplications Drive Cost Article content Article content Enterprises are forced to endure elevated costs due to data duplication in the following ways: Article content Increased storage cost. Duplicated data is still stored, which increases the cost of legacy solutions as they require a large storage footprint, leading to high cloud or on-prem costs. More expensive and slower data processing. Processing duplicated data increases the resource load for operations such as indexing and searching, which is the most common data operation on an archive. This raises costs in terms of cloud expenditure or on-premises infrastructure, as well as operational impacts such as longer search times and the associated human costs. Data exports, a key source of archiving revenue for legacy archiving providers, are larger than necessary. With the same data being exported more than once; and Duplicate data means more data to be reviewed, which creates significantly more labor costs and delays completion time, plus the increased chance of data interpretation errors. Article content Customers of legacy providers tell us they typically experience data duplication rates of approximately 30%. Therefore, searching takes longer, legal review takes longer, and investigations take longer. Article content Behavox's established deduplication solution overcomes these issues for customers. The result is reduced time and risk for firms. Article content 'Legacy vendors charge you to store, process, and review the same content multiple times,' said Dr. Michael McGrath, Head of DCGA Strategy & Partnerships at Behavox. 'By removing duplicates before they even reach the legal team, we help clients cut costs at every stage: storage, processing, and legal review.' He goes on, 'Key to this is the fundamental task of ensuring the integrity of the data from creation to usage and deletion. This is a challenge for most of the industry from the very outset, with poor data reconciliation technology at the ingestion stage, and data loss and corruption with some solutions. Article content The Behavox Intelligent Archive now includes multi-layered native deduplication, which removes duplicate data during search and export. As firms typically see 20%-30% duplicate data this means they can expect to achieve significant reductions in review volumes, by up to 30%. Reviewing exported data, especially by costly resources, remains one of the main components of the operating costs of a compliance solution. Article content The result is a transformed customer experience: This new capability is Generally Available (GA) and has been rolled out to existing Intelligent Archive customers. Article content About Behavox Article content Behavox is the leading provider of AI-powered compliance and conduct surveillance solutions. The company's flagship product, the Behavox Intelligent Archive, enables regulated firms to capture, retain, and analyze communications and behavioral data across channels — empowering compliance, legal, and risk functions to reduce exposure, respond swiftly to regulators, and create a culture of integrity.

Jordan, Saudi Arabia to boost archiving, documentation cooperation
AMMAN: Jordan's government has approved a memorandum of understanding with Saudi Arabia to enhance cooperation in archiving and documentation, the Petra news agency reported on Wednesday. The decision ratified an agreement between Jordan's Royal Hashemite Documentation Center and Saudi Arabia's National Center for Archives and Records. The agreement will set out a framework to preserve and catalog historical documents, and the exchange of expertise and technology. There will be joint training programs in document restoration, digitization, and professional development, Petra reported. The plan includes archival exhibitions, scientific seminars, and joint research projects. The agreement stipulates that shared documents and data may not be distributed to third parties without prior written consent, even after the pact ends. It will be in effect for an initial three years and automatically renewed unless one side opts out in writing at least six months before the expiration date.

Storehouse review – an exasperating wander through the internet's ‘arkive'
The disused warehouse given over to this immersive production was once a storehouse for newspapers (Rupert Murdoch's, in fact). So it is well suited to the show's central concern – the archiving of words, although the fictive 'arkive' stored here is for every single digital expression since the inception of the internet in 1983. The Guardian's journalism is independent. We will earn a commission if you buy something through an affiliate link. Learn more. It is impressively gargantuan, with rooms as big as aeroplane hangars. Within them there are tight tunnels made of wicker or white padded material, the latter reminiscent of Punchdrunk's Viola's Room, also staged in a vast space. Conceived by Liana Patarkatsishvili and produced by Sage & Jester, Storehouse is certainly grand in ambition and immaculately conceived in design, with an intricately created lexicon, too. The backstory is that a now dead company boss conceived a global project to record every online message, meme and utterance in the hope to build the formation of a greater truth – a 'Truthtopia' – in the world above this alternate underground realm. Except that this archiving process, named 'the great aggregation', has missed its deadline for the revelation of truth. We meet its employees who seem willingly imprisoned underground and frozen in time like New Romantic throwbacks. They follow random rules such as falling into dance every time Culture Club's Karma Chameleon is blasted out of a loudspeaker. We, the audience, are positioned as trustees of the company and are being shown around in the hope to inject fresh blood amid low morale and a recruitment crisis. There are shades of Severance to the setup, with blind obedience among some employees rubbing up against the discontent and disobedience of others. Alongside, there are also echoes of George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four and HG Wells's The Time Machine. It's a melange, with too many themes, and none of the dread, drama or tension that should accompany them. So the ideas float aimlessly in this great space without being tethered to enough actual story. The script has been conceived in a writers' room usually associated with US screen dramas. This brings no less than six co-writers (Katie Lyons, Tristan Bernays, Sonali Bhattacharyya, Kathryn Bond, Caro Murphy and Rhik Samadder) alongside story producer, Donnacadh O'Briain. It seems like a case of too many cooks; dialogue spins from data control to algorithms, the (mis)use of information, truths and lies ('Truth lies here' is a perplexing refrain). Themes are not only telegraphed but tub-thumped in the final scene with big questions thrown out to the audience such as: 'What gives you hope?' ('My cat,' says one participant). There is earnest talk of tree hugging and disconnecting from social media. It's nothing you do not already know, with no new take to offer. Disembodied instructions are spoken through the public address system across the rooms (the voices of Toby Jones, Meera Syal, Billy Howle and Kathryn Hunter), and four combinations of cast perform the show simultaneously. Having seen two of these performances, I am still uncertain of why. Some actors bring a little more depth to their character, especially Harriett O'Grady as a stacker (responsible for organising shelving of data) along with Chris Agha and Dawn Butler as bookbinders. It all comes together around a giant inkwell, when the plot is revealed in what seems like a Scooby-Doo style ending, with motives and culprits fully explained amid rather too basic reasoning. Despite the alarm sounds and disturbed lighting through the show, there is no danger or jeopardy. The final moments open up to big electronic sound, laser light and Kraftwerk concert optics (lighting design by Ben Donoghue, sound design by James Bulley). It looks spectacular. If only there was more meaning in it. At Deptford Storehouse, London, until 20 September
