OpenText Lens - Data Visibility - OpenText Magellan Risk Guard Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between OpenText Lens - Data Visibility and OpenText Magellan Risk Guard

1. Sensitive Content Discovery to Risk Triage

Data flow: OpenText Lens - Data Visibility → OpenText Magellan Risk Guard

OpenText Lens scans repositories to identify where sensitive, redundant, or obsolete unstructured content resides. That inventory can be passed to OpenText Magellan Risk Guard for deeper risk analysis and prioritization. This helps compliance and legal teams focus on the highest-risk files first, rather than reviewing large volumes of content manually.

• Prioritize repositories with the highest concentration of regulated or confidential data
• Reduce time spent on broad manual reviews
• Improve accuracy in remediation planning

2. Risk Findings Enrichment with Repository Context

Data flow: OpenText Magellan Risk Guard → OpenText Lens - Data Visibility

When OpenText Magellan Risk Guard detects risky content, those findings can be sent back to OpenText Lens to enrich the data visibility view with risk indicators. Business owners gain a clearer picture of which repositories contain both sensitive content and compliance exposure, supporting better governance decisions.

• Show risk scores alongside repository inventories
• Help data owners understand exposure by location, department, or business unit
• Support executive reporting on information risk

3. Remediation Candidate Identification for Cleanup Programs

Data flow: OpenText Lens - Data Visibility → OpenText Magellan Risk Guard

During data cleanup or retention initiatives, OpenText Lens can identify obsolete, duplicate, or low-value content and send those candidates to OpenText Magellan Risk Guard for compliance validation before deletion or archival. This reduces the chance of removing content that still carries legal or regulatory value.

• Validate cleanup candidates against risk and compliance rules
• Lower the chance of accidental deletion of protected records
• Accelerate defensible disposition programs

4. Migration Readiness and Risk Screening

Data flow: OpenText Lens - Data Visibility → OpenText Magellan Risk Guard

Before migrating content to a new platform, OpenText Lens can inventory the source repositories and identify sensitive or obsolete files. OpenText Magellan Risk Guard can then screen the migration set for compliance issues, allowing project teams to exclude high-risk content, apply extra controls, or route items for review before cutover.

• Reduce migration of unnecessary or risky content
• Improve migration scope accuracy
• Support secure cloud or platform transition programs

5. Continuous Monitoring of High-Risk Repositories

Data flow: Bi-directional

OpenText Lens can provide a repository map and content classification baseline, while OpenText Magellan Risk Guard continuously monitors those same repositories for new or changed risk conditions. Together, they create a practical operating model for ongoing governance, where visibility and risk detection work as a single workflow.

• Detect new sensitive content as it is added
• Track changes in repository risk over time
• Support recurring compliance reviews and audits

6. Legal Hold and Investigation Support

Data flow: OpenText Lens - Data Visibility → OpenText Magellan Risk Guard

In legal or regulatory investigations, OpenText Lens can quickly locate relevant unstructured data across repositories. OpenText Magellan Risk Guard can then assess the identified content for sensitive or problematic material, helping legal teams narrow the review set and reduce exposure during discovery or internal investigations.

• Speed up identification of relevant content
• Reduce review volume for legal teams
• Improve defensibility of investigation workflows

7. Governance Dashboard for Compliance and Risk Teams

Data flow: Bi-directional

By combining OpenText Lens inventory data with OpenText Magellan Risk Guard risk findings, organizations can build a unified governance dashboard that shows where sensitive data lives, how much of it exists, and which repositories require immediate action. This gives compliance, security, and business stakeholders a shared view for prioritization and reporting.

• Consolidate visibility and risk metrics in one reporting layer
• Support audit preparation and executive oversight
• Improve coordination between data owners, compliance, and IT

8. Exception Management and Remediation Workflow Routing

Data flow: OpenText Magellan Risk Guard → OpenText Lens - Data Visibility

When OpenText Magellan Risk Guard flags content that requires remediation, the issue details can be routed back to OpenText Lens to identify the broader repository context and responsible business owner. This enables more efficient assignment of remediation tasks, especially in large enterprises with distributed content ownership.

• Route issues to the correct data owner or steward
• Track remediation by repository, department, or content type
• Improve accountability and closure rates for compliance issues
