The Cloud and e-Discovery

By David Greetham
April 01, 2016

Leveraging advanced technologies can empower corporate counsel and law firms alike to take control of the ongoing challenge that today's “information on demand” expectations present.

With the information overload of modern organizations, a pure cloud migration delivers access to important information ' no matter the size ' to those who need it, when and where they need it securely.

Cloud technologies have matured, and concerns over ease-of-use have been addressed. In addition, cloud providers have put tighter security policies in place to address perceived cloud security issues, which include encryption-at-rest technologies or multi-level authorization requirements to name a few.
