e-Discovery In An Information Governance World
Electronic discovery experts continue to put an emphasis on recognizing e-discovery as part of a complete information governance (IG) solution. Although this focus may be novel for e-discovery specialists, the management of corporate information at an enterprise level is far from new; in fact, organizations of all sizes have been employing strategies to deal with data management well before electronically stored information (ESI) subsumed its hardcopy counterparts.
