Overview

In Enterprise Video Content Management EVCM system, a media consists of several types of content related to organization's unstructured information which includes research reports, scanned images, marketing videos, meeting recordings, etc. This collection of media provides a holistic view of the content, allowing the organizations to organize the unstructured information according to the business needs and to eliminate dependence on the paper documents. This also allows the organizations to drive better customer service and increase overall productivity resulting in lesser organizational risk. One of the greatest concerns in managing huge unstructured information is the ability to track any unauthorized access or modifications on sensitive information. The absence of user activity logs can create complexities such as:

  • Who accessed the content?
  • When was the content accessed?
  • Which updates have been incorporated in the content with timestamps?
  • What was the content creation date and time?


All of the above and many other crucial questions can be answered by the Media Activity Logs that VIDIZMO offers in its Enterprise Video Content Management (EVCM) system. To learn more about it, see: Understanding Media Activity logs.
