Join this channel to hear leading experts present on the most pressing tech and legal trends in the world of e-discovery and computer forensics

Everything you do is case driven, deadlines are everything and end user experience with data whether it’s uploading or analyzing is critical.  All of these things mean the business value of data is in constant flux, but data storage treat all data equally forcing you to choose between staying in budget or meeting end user service level expectations.  Join Chris McCall, SVP Marketing of NexGen Storage to discuss new value-driven data management capabilities designed to help Legal Service IT providers deliver a best-in-class end user experience.

Managing the Business Value Lifecycle of Data for eDiscovery and Legal Services

The dramatic shift towards mobile devices in the enterprise means that everyone today is in some form a mobile worker. Along with this comes the startling statistic that nearly 30% of enterprise data is being solely stored on these devices, decreasing visibility and increasing company data risks. When an impending litigation happens, will you know how to collect and preserve your mobile data? How will you manage this data through the handoff to processing and review without compromising data integrity? With eDiscovery costs continuing to rise, getting on top of your mobile data will be key to lowering expenses and keeping ahead of data risks.

In this session you will hear about:
- How the new frontier of mobility is altering approaches to data governance
- New ways to extend enterprise visibility to data,  without disrupting productivity
- The technologies and partnerships forging to address eDiscovery for mobile data

Don’t Get Caught Empty Handed: Addressing eDiscovery with a Mobile Workforce

In a recent report, 39% of storage professionals said that data backup and recovery is a business challenge and 27% said it is a top IT priority. As the volume, variety, and velocity of data growth continues, legacy Backup, Recovery and Archiving (BURA) solutions are failing to keep pace. 

As the cost and complexity of protecting data continues to rise, more data is at risk.  Join @HPStorage Guy Calvin Zito and a panel of experts as they discuss how BURA must be transformed to fit the New Style of IT.

Why You Need to Move Beyond Traditional Backup & Archiving

When confronted with fast-moving, large complex matters, or a series of internal investigations, the corporate legal department must move quickly to identify and collect potentially relevant information, assess the company’s position and attendant risks, and if required proceed to a cost-effective document review.  
This webinar will explore how organizations can leverage proactive governance policies and analytics-based early case assessment capabilities to take better control of discovery.  Attorneys must efficiently identify, collect and process large volumes of information, slice and dice the data set to assess the merits, potential liabilities and costs of a matter, and filter the reviewable document set to minimize the cost of document review. And document review itself needs to leverage advanced technologies and methodologies to drive efficient and high-productivity review. 
In this webinar attendees will learn:
• How to leverage information governance policies to drive efficient early case assessment
• How a meaning-based computing platform intelligently integrates data from disparate sources to help minimize risk and reduce costs
• How to use different analytical technologies to accelerate legal decision-making
• How archives and legal repositories can efficiently manage large data volumes and multiple data formats while accelerating data identification and collection for fast-moving investigations 
• How an integrated, unified discovery platform can facilitate collaboration between Legal, IT, Compliance, and Records Management

Accelerate and Enhance Case Strategy to Take Control of Discovery

You create it and store it. You manage it and retrieve it. You buy it and sell it. Information is the fuel that drives your business: it’s one of your greatest assets. But it can also be a liability.  Having a records management solution in place, that spans electronic records and emails as well as physical records helps all organizations to not only reduce the risks they are exposed to, but to improve staff productivity while managing their records consistently and efficiently.


Why does this matter? Well, not least because of the frequency with which poor information management and bad record-keeping practices are cited by regulators such as the FSA in the prosecution of their member firms.   And not only that but the Information Commissioner now has the power to fine any business up to £500,000 in relation to poor information management practices – and the fines have already begun.  Having a consistent, relevant and compliant records and information management infrastructure can not only mitigate these risks but also help improve process quality, increase efficiency and recognize significant cost savings at an operational level.

But with real concerns on how to seamlessly (and consistently) integrate data from multiple sources and how to ensure that this data is integrated and embedded into business process, organizations are often confused as to how they can move towards an infrastructure-led approach to managing all corporate information.

Attend this Webinar and you will hear:
•       How to plan and implement an RM solution that spans physical and electronic records
•       The steps to take to ensure a solution that has the ability to provide consistent, organization-wide RM
•       How other organizations have embraced RM to provide real business benefits

Records Management – the Dawn of a New Era?

The target of discovery in civil litigation now is electronic data.  The failure to respond effectively to electronic discovery demands can lead to significant monetary sanctions, adverse case results, and even jail time.  The failure to have one’s electronic discovery house in order can mean that efforts to respond to electronic discovery demands can be extremely burdensome and expensive as repeat fire drills.  This presentation will explain the current state of the law and technology when it comes to electronic discovery and will provide guidance on how best to effectively handle electronic discovery in civil litigation to minimize expense and to optimize case results.

Avoiding E-Discovery Landmines

The use of social media evidence in electronic discovery has escalated dramatically in the last year. There are indeed “nuggets of gold” in social media evidence, but you don’t necessarily mine them without peril. There’s a way to do it correctly and a way to get yourself in trouble, perhaps by inadvertently doing something unethical or perhaps by simply not knowing how to obtain the evidence appropriately. Our experts will discuss the role of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act and the Stored Communications Act in dealing with social media evidence and they will also help you understand when to go to the social media provider and when to go to the user to procure your evidence. Case law is new in this area, but recent cases are instructive, and this session will discuss a few of the most noteworthy cases.

Social Media & E-Discovery: Riches and Risks

A litigation hold is a process used by companies to advise their employees of pending or anticipated litigation and of their obligation to preserve relevant records .  Recent case law and changes to Federal and State rules highlight the critical importance of these litigation holds.  This webinar will focus on the design, implementation and maintenance of effective holds, all steps in avoiding evidence spoliation and foreclosing the possibility of punitive sanctions.

The Sky is Not Falling: An e-Discovery Success Story

Storage Professionals today face the daunting task of being able to quickly know where every email, word document and database file lives and how to get it back in a hurry in the event of a catastrophe.  With the update to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) a storage professional now has even more pressure to potentially know the content inside those files. This session helps the storage professional understand the changes to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP).  We will also look at an e-Discovery request from the perspective of a storage professional.  Finally, we will provide some recommendations on how to prepare for an e-Discovery request.

How E-Discovery Will Affect Your Life as a Storage Professional

Without the right tools in place, collecting, processing, and reviewing electronic data for eDiscovery can be time-consuming, expensive, and expose a business to significant legal risks. With the introduction of basic email retention and discovery features in Exchange 2010, some organizations are delaying or canceling the deployment of third-party email archiving solutions. But can Exchange adequately address the need to preserve email evidence and deliver it under extremely tight deadlines? Attend this webinar to learn why third-party archiving solutions will continue to be necessary, despite eDiscovery capabilities in Exchange 2010.
