Verity Layer independently reconciles your source systems (Teams, Slack, Zoom, Email) against your compliance archive to verify 100% capture completeness — before your regulator asks.
Most firms assume that if their archive connector shows green, their communications data is safe.
But API timeouts, federation errors, tenant misconfigurations, and provisioning gaps cause silent data drops — messages that were sent but never reached the archive. Your firm is exposed to regulatory action without knowing it.
The structural problem: your archive vendor reports what it received, but it cannot see what was sent at the source. It grades its own homework. No one is checking the math.
Verity Layer checks the math.
We connect read-only to your source system APIs — Microsoft Graph, Slack Audit API, Zoom Admin, voice platforms — and pull definitive message counts and metadata for any time window.
We pull parallel ingestion data from your archive (Global Relay, Smarsh, Proofpoint, etc.) and match: message IDs, timestamps, user coverage, and channel completeness.
You get an independent, verifiable reconciliation report showing exactly how many messages were sent, how many were captured, the delta, and where the gaps are — suitable for internal audit, board reporting, or regulator submission.
| Channel | Vendor | Source Count | Archive Count | Delta | Capture Rate | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smarsh | 3,218,447 | 3,217,891 | 556 | 99.98% | COMPLETE | |
| Teams | Smarsh | 1,847,203 | 1,812,461 | 34,742 | 98.10% | GAP DETECTED |
| Slack | Global Relay | 892,104 | 834,209 | 57,895 | 93.50% | CRITICAL GAP |
| Zoom | Smarsh | 12,847 | 12,831 | 16 | 99.90% | COMPLETE |
| Global Relay | 47,219 | 45,388 | 1,831 | 96.10% | GAP DETECTED |

Explore the full demoThe SEC and CFTC collected $3.4 billion in off-channel communications penalties between 2022 and 2025. Every firm that paid settled on archive completeness, not misconduct.
The firms that were fined were not necessarily doing anything wrong. They just could not prove their archives were complete.
Verity Layer gives you that proof.
“We've been asking our archive vendor for independent proof of completeness for years. They tell us what they captured — but who verifies what they missed?”
“Connector status green doesn't mean 100% capture. We learned that the hard way when we found a 3-week gap during an exam prep.”
“We need reconciliation at the message level, not just connector status. That's the gap in our current control framework.”
