Key features

From fast WORM storage to strict records-retention requirements, SnapLock is designed to help make your archive operations more flexible, more reliable, and more efficient.

Reinforce the permanence and integrity of your data

Create nonrewritable, nonerasable data on hard disk drives or flash media to prevent files from being altered or deleted until a predetermined or default retention date. Support litigation hold and event-based retention, and incrementally append files while remaining locked (e.g. audio or video surveillance and logging).

Ensure you remain compliant with applicable regulations

SnapLock is certified to meet stringent industry compliance requirements, such as the SEC 17a-4(f) rule, FINRA, and CFTC—as well as national requirements for the German-speaking countries (DACH).

Retain data your way with a choice of retention models

SnapLock Compliance is certified to meet strict records-retention requirements, with only an act of willful destruction, such as physically removing disks from a NetApp system, resulting in record deletion before the specified expiration date. Snaplock Enterprise supports corporate best practices and requirements not covered by regulatory mandates. And it allows a trusted administrator to delete SnapLock Enterprise volumes or files.
