The new platform combines Iron Mountain's (News - Alert) logistical network and physical information management infrastructure with FutureVault's secure digital vault platform to provide a comprehensive physical-to-digital document life cycle management service. Now, businesses can order the transfer of paper records to an Iron Mountain location where they are scanned, deposited, indexed, and stored in both a secure physical and digital location; the latter on FutureVault's platform. Based on their unique document retention policies, organizations can choose to archive or shred their original paper documents or have them returned. Digitizing paper records and accessing them via a secure digital vault has never been easier.

The first pilot participants of the Digitization-as-a-Service offering included advisors with Aligned Capital Partners Inc., an innovative investment firm headquartered near Toronto in Burlington, Ontario with over 200 advisors across Canada.
