Critical Role of Archiving
Too often, archiving is thought of as simply a way to save storage costs or as just a way to manage email. Because email archiving has matured over the last decade, some are lulled to sleep thinking that archiving is easy. While archiving has been around for some time, projects are still challenge. There are more and more types of data from diverse sources such as SharePoint and file systems. There are more deliver options for archiving solutions, including on-premise software, software-as-a-service (SaaS), and hybrid models. With eDiscovery gaining more attention, archiving is more important than ever. Not only can archiving deliver IT cost savings, but it can drastically reduce the cost of eDiscovery and kickstart successful information governance initiatives. This webinar will look at trends in archiving and examine how organizations can optimize existing archiving projects as well as insure productive starts to new projects.

But, without doing collection in a truly defensible manner, organizations will only make eDiscovery more of a nightmare and face higher costs and negative outcomes. This webinar will focus on how to get started with effective collection initiatives and how to make them defensible.

Gear Up For The Cloud And eDiscovery Now
Few topics are as hyped right now as The Cloud thanks to its promise to drastically reduce the costs of storing information and implementing software applications. Despite the hype, research shows that few companies are actually leveraging cloud-based eDiscovery solutions today. However, the same research shows that companies plan to leverage the cloud – and soon. As a result, there is a limited timeframe in which to gear up for The Cloud and eDiscovery. It will not necessarily be easy to address the new challenges associated with The Cloud, but ignoring the will leave companies with higher eDiscovery costs and higher risk exposure.
This webinar explores current and planned rates of usage of cloud-based solutions for eDiscovery. It also analyze the areas where cloud-based solutions can have the biggest impact on eDiscovery and how The Cloud fits with in-house solutions as part of a holistic eDiscovery strategy. Further, this session breaks down the concerns that keep many companies from adopting The Cloud – like security and privacy – and offer pragmatic ways to address these concerns. Speakers for this webinar are Barry Murphy of the eDJ Group and Martin Tully, Partner at Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP.
This webinar is available free thanks to our sponsor Kroll Ontrack.

Marrying Workflow and Data To Make eDiscovery a Manageable Business Process

By combining intelligent workflows with comprehensive data management, organizations can streamline the e-discovery process. This means integrating information from various ESI data sources (such as SharePoint and Exchange), creating a unified and transparent view of potentially responsive information and making informed decisions early and efficiently.

The eDiscoveryJournal Webinar: Debate on Native Format Production and Redaction
Amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) in 2006 invigorated the eDiscovery market. These amendments have created debate over what obligations organizations have in terms of collecting, preserving, reviewing, and production information in response to litigation. One of the amendments – to Rule 34(b) – made the default obligation to produce a document “in a form or forms in which it is ordinarily maintained or in a form or forms that are reasonably usable.’ This begs the question of whether all documents must be delivered in native format (e.g. Microsoft Word or Excel) versus the traditional TIFF or PDF production.
