AWS Wickr announces Data Retention Service feature

AWS Wickr now offers a managed Data Retention Service feature for Premium users, enabling organizations to retain conversations across their network for data archiving purposes. AWS Wickr is an enterprise-grade, secure collaboration product that provides end-to-end encrypted messaging, file management, screen sharing, and voice/video conferencing capabilities. The Data Retention Service feature provides a cloud-native alternative to traditional container-based data retention methods.

The Data Retention Service can retain conversations in your network, including direct messages and conversations in Groups or Rooms between internal members and external federated teams. The serverless architecture offers simplified deployment, managed infrastructure, automatic scaling, and comprehensive monitoring while maintaining Wickr's end-to-end encryption standards. This feature is particularly valuable for organizations that require comprehensive data archiving capabilities and maintaining audit trails.

AWS Wickr Premium customers can opt in to enable data retention for their networks. To learn more, visit the AWS Wickr documentation.
