Governed, Auditable Information Exchange — Beyond the Shared Drive
ARMA InfoCon 2026 · Savannah, GA · October 25–28
SideDrawer is a digital vault platform built for regulated organizations — role-based access, full audit trails, and automated retention rules for the client, advisor, and outside-counsel exchanges that sit beyond the reach of your internal records and content management systems.
SideDrawer is a digital vault platform, not a records-management system of record. It gives regulated organizations role-based access, full audit trails, and configurable retention rules for the information exchanged with clients, advisors, and outside parties — then routes that activity into the ECM and RIM systems you already run, rather than replacing them.
Where SideDrawer Fits an Information Governance Program
These are the platform capabilities that map most directly onto information governance requirements — already shipped, not roadmap.
Role-Based Access Control
Configurable roles and permissions govern exactly who can view, edit, or share each document — no default owner-level access to fall back on.
Full Audit Trail
Every upload, download, form submission, e-signature, and access event is logged, producing a complete chain of custody for information leaving the firewall.
Retention & Lifecycle Rules
Vaults apply configurable retention and disposition rules across the full document lifecycle — create, active, archive, close.
ECM / RIM Integration
Native integration patterns with systems like IBM FileNet and OpenText route vault activity into the records systems you already operate.
Dedicated Tenant Isolation
Each enterprise's data is architecturally isolated — no co-mingling across clients or business lines.
SOC 2 Type II + SOC 1
Certifications maintained and available for your procurement and security review process.
The governed layer between your organization and everyone outside it
Most information governance policy is written for what happens inside the firewall. SideDrawer applies the same access, audit, and retention discipline to what happens outside it — the documents and data moving to clients, advisors, and outside counsel over email and shared links today.
