Vault
Archiving and eDiscovery for email, files and chats
Safely set retention policies on supported content for an entire domain or for specific organisational units with date ranges and specific query terms. Vault enables you to track and keep logged data for legal audits.
Find and retrieve valuable information, even from suspended accounts. It’s a smart way to gather what your legal team needs and to prevent data loss from employee turnover. You can also export past versions of Google Drive files.
Export content retrieved through search to standard formats for additional review. You can export results for any licensed account.
Track user activity within Vault. Robust audit trails let you see searches, content views, exports and more.
Electronic discovery, or eDiscovery, is the process of seeking and finding information in electronic format. It is typically used in response to legal matters and investigations.
If you delete a user, all data associated with the user's account will be removed from Google. As best practice, Google recommends suspending user accounts instead of deleting them.
Google Vault is included at no additional cost with G Suite Business and Enterprise editions. Google Vault can be purchased as an add-on to G Suite Basic edition.
