Published

Every organisation is paying to store and protect information it doesn’t need. Redundant, obsolete, and trivial (ROT) data hides in boxes, file shares, cloud platforms, and legacy archives, driving up costs, slowing productivity, and increasing compliance risk.

In this guide, we’ll show you how to:

  • Identify and eliminate ROT across physical and digital holdings
  • Align your retention policies with international standards like GDPR and other legislation/ISO standards
  • Cut cloud and storage bills while improving your productivity
  • Reduce environmental impact through smarter data practices

Organisations that tackle ROT typically see a financial return within the first year, often sooner, but from reduced storage and backup costs to faster discovery and lower exposure, the benefits extend beyond the financial bottom line.
