We’ve written about [what DCGA is](https://blog.thetalake.com/digital-communications-governance-what-it-is-how-theta-lake-fits-and-what-you-need-to-know), but essentially it represents the evolution from the legacy Enterprise Information Archiving (EIA) market, that was built on email and file based archiving, to the the current need to apply capture, archiving, data retention, surveillance, supervision, behavioral analytics, auditing and e-discovery towards Unified Communications and Collaboration (UCC) platforms. For Theta Lake, it was great news - [as we were named a Visionary.](https://pages.thetalake.com/2025-gartner-magic-quadrant-dcga) [Read More](https://blog.thetalake.com/the-news-were-a-gartner-visionary-for-digital-communications-governance-and-archiving-dcga) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.thetalake.com/the-news-were-a-gartner-visionary-for-digital-communications-governance-and-archiving-dcga#comments-listing) ## [Compliance Search and Discovery for Unified Communications Shouldn’t Be So Hard](https://blog.thetalake.com/compliance-search-and-discovery-for-unified-communications-shouldnt-be-so-hard) Posted by [Garth Landers](https://blog.thetalake.com/author/garth-landers) on Sep 12, 2024 8:00:00 AM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.thetalake.com/hubfs/Blog_ReadNow_UnifiedSearchAndDiscovery_Sep2024_GLanders-1.png)](https://blog.thetalake.com/compliance-search-and-discovery-for-unified-communications-shouldnt-be-so-hard) Responding to governance events, like audits, investigations and e-discovery, in the era of unified communications and collaboration (UCC) is hard. IT stakeholders, such as those responsible for compliance archive storage and architecture, responding to search requests from compliance and legal, are overwhelmed by the volume and complexity of today’s modern communications and by the constraints of heritage archiving investments. Unfortunately for those involved, both on the IT and compliance/legal side, search and discovery might consist of a “best guess” effort making it challenging to identify risk or wrongdoing, form a judgment on the merits of a case and at its worse, suffer fines, sanctions, negative verdicts and damage to the organization’s brand and reputation.

While there were a broad array of topics covered- from AI and blockchain to cybersecurity and IoT, the issue of voice compliance- and how to best approach it was a topic that surfaced itself in numerous panel sessions, roundtables and customer interactions. As seen in one session, 67% of the audience is seeing an increase in voice compliance regulatory inquiries and exams.

One of the first signifiers was the 50M series B round investment in Theta Lake, which included participation by some of the leading UCC providers including Zoom Video Communications Inc, RingCentral Ventures, Cisco Ventures and Salesforce Ventures. The market need has also been proven (an understatement) by the 2.6B in regulatory fines that have been levied on the financial services industry due to poor recordkeeping and unmonitored communications.

While it may seem like just a measure of the time users spend, the study reveals that there is an enormous cognitive toll that takes place as users engage in what is known as context switching, and recalibrating themselves. As a result, it leads to losses in productivity.
