Smarsh

Enterprise communications archiving and machine-learning surveillance

GAII rated 6.65 / 10 — read the rating

Smarsh captures and supervises communications across more than a hundred channels and applies machine-learning surveillance inherited from its Digital Reasoning acquisition. PE-owned and highly acquisitive, it serves banks, broker-dealers, wealth and asset managers, and insurers.

GAII take
Scale is strong, but the 2025 TeleMessage security incident warrants diligence on encryption and acquired-product security posture.
