Distributed Content Nodes (DCN): Efficient Data Control
Control data storage location.
Intralinks Distributed Content Nodes™ (DCN) enable you to control where information is stored and how it’s accessed, so it’s easy to stay in compliance with local and global data privacy regulations.
For more than 20 years, we’ve enabled content collaboration for the world’s most IP-sensitive and regulated companies. As regulations become increasingly complex, the value we deliver becomes more and more critical.
Changing regulations drive the need for distributed content nodes.
New and evolving data privacy regulations require that many global companies store their data in-region – especially when it comes to highly sensitive or personal information. Intralinks DCN technology lets you:
- Securely share content and collaborate across geographic boundaries
- Store regulated data within a specific geography and ensure that content uploaded to the Intralinks platform never leaves the region
- Control not only the desired geographic location for storage but the processing functions as well (encryption, indexing, virus scanning, etc.)
Intralinks has a significant portfolio of capabilities to help customers minimize their risks under challenging regulations, including the GDPR.
Global footprint of Intralinks data centers.
A Distributed Content Node (DCN) gives our customers the ability to store and collaborate on sensitive content securely within a specific geography – safe in the knowledge that the content they upload onto the Intralinks platform never has to leave the region. Both the file storage and the processing stay on the node itself.
Optimized for global compliance and data sovereignty:
- In-region storage (US, UK, Germany, Australia, Japan)
- In-region processing (US, Germany, Australia)
- Offline archive
