Reading the actual Patent (US 12,069,151 B2) provides a much clearer picture if you can wade through the rather obtuse patent legalese. It seems clear that this method applies to an enterprise server based patform rather than a SaaS service. They patent and Cellebrite’s handy ‘fact page’ carefully state that remote collection requires device owner notification and consent. I have encountered this same hesitation [...]
Got a late start this year scheduling briefings, so I may actually get to attend some of the excellent sessions on offer. Regular readers know that I am focused on corporate eDiscovery and compliance ecosystems. Here are some interesting sessions with why I think that they are worth attending. Wednesday Transform Your Review with Relativity aiR 1:00 PM-1:45 PM Relativity aiR for Review [...]
327 Updates - 202 in development - 34 rolling out - 83 launched The new Purview eDiscovery portal has rolled out to some tenants in preview mode. The Purview PM team briefed me on it back at LegalWeek and it finally arrived at my test tenant this week. They have definitely gone for a simplified workflow and ‘eliminated’ the Collection searches. Unfortunately, legal holds [...]
Despite the crazy project load, I will be at Relativity Fest next month and will have availability to meet with peers and brief with providers. After my disastrous LegalWeek experience with M365 Bookings, I have resurrected my Calendly account, so grab slots here: https://calendly.com/gregbuckles/relfest2023 I am especially interested in talking with corporate/firm peers who are wrestling with M365 sources and integrating Purview eDiscovery [...]
With more than 1 million organizations and 320 million monthly users, Teams chats, sites and channels are key eDiscovery targets for legal holds and collections. Despite extensive public documentation, blogs and articles it can be challenging to understand the different types of Teams channels, what they can store and where the ESI is routed. The new Guide Guide on Teams as a source is [...]
Ted Theodoropoulos recently proclaimed, “Enterprise search is dead!” He seems to have been referencing the new AI search methodologies and tools that provide answers instead of just links. That got me brainstorming about how our traditional and new generational tools apply to the DIKW pyramid model of retrieval. My analytics mentor Skip Walter hammered the differences between data, information and knowledge into my hard [...]
The AI hype cycle seems to have left many customers in the ditch of disillusionment. Everlaw may have avoided that roadmap trap with a heavy investment in a year-long beta of their EverlawAI Assistant. 2,900 beta users in 125 companies got free, unlimited use in exchange for regular feedback and debriefing sessions. Everlaw continues to invest in proving their value proposition with a free [...]
I received the following question through the new Geek Guides on how to export Purview Legal Hold reports and wrote up a fast overview of the new Legal Hold report in Purview eDiscovery (Premium) as well as a PowerShell script to pull the information. I have a big Purview eDiscovery legal hold validation project on my calendar, so expect that this Geek Guide page [...]
While elbow deep drafting eDiscovery search guidelines and documentation for a client it occurred to me that someone had to have created a visual depicting the different aspects/elements that comprise enterprise search criteria. I tried Google/Bing/ChatGPT/etc. without luck. Even shot off a hail mary to my retrieval/AI mentor without luck. So I made the fast Venn diagram below (Enterprise Search guide page). Over the [...]
A global corporate compliance officer recently told me, “They do all the bad things on their phones.” While remote mobile device collection products entered the market a few years ago, initial utilization and case studies seem to have been dominated by big, complex ‘bet the company’ matters. This kind of long-term strategic integration partnership better supports corporate legal-compliance workflows where automation, dashboards and [...]
