Case Closed: VANTOS Delivers V-Flex(im) - the Industry's Only Comprehensive System of Record for Enterprise Investigation Management
Repeatable, Auditable, Defensible and Recoverable Results Enable Enterprises to Rapidly Achieve Economic Value within Ten Investigations or Less
SEATTLE, Feb. 26 -- VANTOS, Inc. today announced the immediate availability of the V-Flex(im) product, the industry's only Comprehensive System of Record for Enterprise Investigation Management. For the first time, enterprises can now manage their entire portfolio of investigations with V-Flex(im), allowing them to reduce their risk exposure, compress time, and cut costs of their investigations. Unlike manual processes in use today, VANTOS V-Flex(im) automates and streamlines investigation management with repeatable, auditable, defensible and recoverable results, allowing stakeholders to take a pro-active stance at reducing risk and delivering rapid economic justification to their bottom line.
"Successful investigations require the effective orchestration of people, processes, resources, technology and information throughout the enterprise," said Randy Barr, Chief Security Officer, WebEx. "We were paralyzed, unable to bring our investigations under control, and there just wasn't any help in sight. We were excited to learn of VANTOS and thrilled when they delivered the results for us. With V-Flex(im) Automated Investigation Playbooks, we now have on-demand access to critical case information, rich analytics, just-in-time teaming evidentiary data and powerful command and control to make faster, more accurate and defensible decisions. The system has already paid for itself in the first two investigations."
V-Flex(im) Features and Benefits:
Enterprises globally are overwhelmed with the rising volume, variety, and complexity of their investigations. With today's demands for airtight governance and risk accountability, new investigations are started every minute ranging from routine cases like spoofed emails or property theft; to industry and company standard investigations such as anti-counterfeit of products and IP loss; to special, one off investigations such as executive fraud. Our findings show that a large corporation may easily have over a hundred ongoing investigations on any given day and a mid-sized company conducts about twenty investigations in any given month. The innovations in V-Flex(im) respond to the full spectrum and range of investigations, enabling rapid response and on-demand collaboration that can help prevent a minor misconduct from spiraling into a corporate catastrophe:
-- Automated Investigation Playbooks -- Provides the essential strategies for repeatable and unbiased execution of any given investigation, to ensure that investigations are conducted in alignment with business policies, litigation standards and regulatory mandates.
-- Command and Control -- Role-based dashboards provide at-a-glance view into every aspect of each investigation, placing critical information at the fingertips of the right stakeholders allowing them to manage their entire portfolio of investigations.
-- Just-In-Time Teaming -- Ensures the right people are in the right roles at the right time during each investigation. On-demand collaborative task and work queues automatically engage the appropriate individuals as required for the investigation.
-- Cross Dimensional Analysis -- Allows investigators and stakeholders to view, analyze, decide and act by seamlessly integrating multiple disparate data sources. This integration provides a comprehensive insight for faster, more accurate decisions for a single investigation or across the investigation portfolio, identifying trends and gaps in controls for accurate risk quantification.
-- Evidence Locker -- V-Flex(im)'s secure repository makes investigations defensible and recoverable by providing granular access control to data on a need to know basis and maintaining a chain of custody for every data set and process element in every investigation.
-- Community of Experts -- V-Flex(im) is built in active collaboration with a world-class development and strategic partner ecosystem, including some of the world's leading strategy consultants, expert investigators, Certified VANTOS Integrators, and industry thought leaders. With unprecedented ease and access, the VANTOS Community of Experts provide peer-to-peer communication between our customers and partners inside and outside the walls of the corporation, ensuring that customers receive the best in both product and services to meet their investigation management challenges.
"VANTOS has aggressively built a truly exceptional community of experts," said Rebecca Bace, President/CEO of security consulting firm, Infidel, Inc. "This community has not only served to validate customer requirements, guide product development, and is using the product in production environments. It also comprises an important feature of the VANTOS offering going forward. The influence of this expert community is a key strategic asset to VANTOS and to the investigative community as a whole. The innovations in V-Flex(im) are a means of providing access to the collective expertise of the community as guidance for system users -- a truly novel approach in our industry and one that customers will embrace as they streamline their investigations with V-Flex(im)."
