OnBase is a single enterprise information management platform for managing content, processes, and cases that allows you to create, retrieve, manage, and distribute electronic documents.
OnBase is often used to manage sensitive content, such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII), Intellectual Property (IP), Protected Health Information (PHI), financial information, and other classified information. OnBase has many features that can help develop a layered, mature approach to securing your data. Malicious attackers, well-intentioned users, catastrophic events, and technological failures all represent threats to the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of your data. It is important to understand and evaluate these threats and to put in place appropriate measures to mitigate them.
