Data Collection and Preservation
Defensibly collect and preserve data at scale for litigation and investigations
Overview
Data Collection and Preservation solutions help organizations collect data from a multitude of sources, including endpoints, cloud repositories, email servers, files shares and popular collaboration platforms, such as Slack and Microsoft® Teams.
Key benefits
Impact business and achieve better results.
-
Gain early insight
Understand the scope of a matter and reduce downstream review costs and time to meet critical deadlines.
-
Ensure defensible workflows
Leverage a repeatable, forensically sound collection workflow that can withstand legal challenges.
-
Enhance collections
Collect specific files or point to a directory to reduce document review costs and get to the case facts faster.
-
Collect data from anywhere
Enable collection and preservation of electronically stored information (ESI), on-premises or in the cloud, to ensure a strict chain of custody.
Business impacts
-
Complex, high-volume collections
Organizations must manage several legal matters simultaneously. Manually collecting and preserving data from thousands of custodians is time-consuming and error-prone. Automate workflows to defensibly collect and preserve terabytes of data.
-
Litigation readiness
To meet court deadlines, legal teams must quickly understand the scope of potential litigation. Legacy solutions inefficiently collect and preserve data, preventing user access to vital information. Leverage data insights to quickly resolve cases.
-
Preserve data with confidence
Data must be collected from a variety of sources in a forensically sound manner. IT departments lack solutions that preserve metadata, increasing the risk of spoliation and sanctions. Ensure data integrity every step of the way.
-
Modern data collections
Remote and hybrid work models require organizations to collect evidence from new communication platforms. Older solutions are not equipped to efficiently collect from modern, complex data sources. Defensibly collect from any data source.
-
Legal hold notifications
Custodians must be expediently notified that they may be party to a litigation matter. Legal holds executed and tracked with spreadsheets and manual email notifications risk sanctions and spoliation. Automate workflows to meet obligations.
