Fight to make your consultant dollars work for you; appreciate the distinction between E-discovery and Computer Forensics
This class explains the fundamental differences between what E-Discovery is (and is not) as well as what the field of computer forensics is (and is not).
E-Discovery produces large amounts of undeleted and/or non hidden data, such as active e-mails, undeleted word documents, undeleted spreadsheets, undeleted images and the like. This information is then sifted, sorted and broken down into a searchable format. The ability of E-discovery gives the litigator the ability to electronically search large amounts of data, bringing multiple drives and networks together.
Computer Forensics uses specialized expertise and tools that go beyond normal data collection. Computer forensics includes the recovery of lost, deleted or hidden evidence as well as an investigate approach that takes advantage of the experience and knowledge of how findings effect and interplay in legal proceedings.
Appreciate the difference! Understand how both of these tools are critically important to any litigation involving computer evidence. This class takes a common sense, non technical approach to helping the litigator understand both disciplines and how each can make the difference between winning and losing their cases
