Free Surveillance: A Marketing Thing
June 14, 2020
There is one key reason many companies once hesitated to let workers telecommute, especially firms that handle sensitive information: security. However, the COVID-19 pandemic is forcing companies to find a way. Mondo Visione reports on one possible solution for financial firms in the brief write-up, “SteelEye Offers Free Communications Surveillance to Support Remote Working—90-Day Offer Aims to Assist Compliance Teams as Employees Work from Multiple Sites.” We learn:
“SteelEye, the compliance technology and data analytics firm, today announced that it is offering financial firms the opportunity to use its Communications Surveillance service for free for up to 90 days as the market adapts to a new style of working. As firms reopen their offices, reduced density rules are likely to prevail for some time, meaning a workforce that is spread between the office and home. Monitoring communications by staff working in multiple locations will require changes in compliance processes, which may prove challenging if access to on-premise technology is needed. To help compliance teams adapt to more flexible working conditions, SteelEye’s Communications Surveillance service is being offered for up to 90, days and 50 monitored users, at no charge and with no obligation for future use. It includes monitoring MS Exchange email and Bloomberg chat, and can be seamlessly integrated to capture communications from staff working remotely.”
SteelEye’s modular, cloud-based Communications Surveillance system can be deployed quickly, the company’s CEO promises, and clients can be on boarded within 24 hours. Risk detection, oversight, and compliance are the platform’s priorities. Founded in 2017, SteelEye is based in London.
