Eliminating Chaos in e-Discovery Preservation Through Technology, Workflows And Automation
Organizations subject to potential lawsuits or investigation require a process for preserving information that may prove relevant to the matter. Yet for many organizations, the preservation process is often chaotic, time-consuming and error-prone.
