Secure Archive Manager is a software application that provides compliant archiving functionality. SAM provides users and applications with CIFS, NFS and S3 protocol access to their archived data. SAM abstracts the front-end protocols from the physical storage for maximum flexibility and a storage vendor neutral approach. SAM includes a file system data mover so files can be moved from an existing archive into SAM in a compliant manner with chain-of-custody reports.Secure Archive Manager is a software application that provides compliant archiving functionality.
