Let's say you have a unique document with many near identical versions, which have one or several values that change, while the rest of the content stays the same.

It was just churning and churning and churning. When we were looking for specific categories of data, it was getting bogged down, but that was not even so much Code42, although some of it was their issue."
"I think one we can improve is the compression."
"More security would be nice, I would love to be able to remotely brick a stolen laptop and it's hard disk drive (HDD)."

"DLP could be improved by implementing a cloud-based console."

"We need to have agent auto-parsing."
"Symantec could be better with infrastructure."
