Electronic Discovery Services: Streamlining Data Availability

Information is the key to every business and industry sector

. The globalized business environment has seen a vast amount of data and information being transferred in digital format between organizations. All these information, which are in the digital form, are stored either in the servers of the networks or on hard disks. The need to locate and retrieve this data from any stored location has given rise to the process known as electronic discovery.

Electronic discovery or e-discovery is the process by which digital records are gathered from data stores and processed for litigation requirements. This includes word processing files, photos, email, audio and video files, and instant messaging transcripts, Internet bookmarks and also data center users' logs. This process brings to light the electronically stored information (ESI), even if they tend to be deleted on purpose or by mistake, thus paving way for the ready availability of data during video conferences, presentations, internal investigation or civil litigation.

The electronic discovery process involves the use of certain ediscovery tools for recovery of data. Electronic data discovery involves a number of stages. This includes generation of the inventory list, list of required data, creation of validation tools and checklists, data retrieval and validation of the data. The use of ediscovery tools facilitates spell check, field validation, elimination of duplicate files and data conversion from any file format. Further, data is filtered with the help of file extensions and keyword search. The source files are captured with the help of coding and indexing functions. The ability to extract electronic data quickly from a vast database and being cost efficient makes this process feasible for both SMBs and large corporate houses.

The top-notch organisations, which offer electronic discovery services, have designed and developed a complete e-discovery platform with a wide variety of solutions as a package. The e-discovery services platform comprises of several modules. The Processing and Analysis Module provides features such as Transparent Search, Discussion threads and People Analytics, which enables users to accelerate early-case assessment, eliminate irrelevant documents and false positives, and rapidly perform a first-pass review. Further, the Review and Production Module enables users to view all related documents in context, perform one-click tagging, redact documents and apply reason codes, thereby increasing review output and consistency.
