The volume of electronically stored information (ESI) and the locations, portability, and types of underlying content have increased at an exponential rate. Now, with more and more data storage being outsourced into the Cloud and the rapid growth of Social-Media/User-Generated-Content, lawyers, IT managers, and records managers are counted on to be experts in e-discovery and data protection.
In the modern environment, it is difficult enough on a regular basis for any given organization to take apt proactive measures to protect its own trade secrets and other proprietary information as well as its customers and employees personally identifiable financial and/or health information. So when an emergency happens due to an investigation, anticipated dispute, subpoena, lawsuit, or government-inquiry, the impacted entity and its litigation counsel need to be agile.
Topics of discussion for this program include:
Treatment of ESI stored in the Cloud
Negotiation and implementation of protective-orders and information-security protocols to protect personally identifiable information
Preparation of discovery requests proposed to banks, Web and social media sites, and entities possessing health and insurance information
Navigation of cross-border issues, including compliance with the EU Privacy Directive and the laws of various EU countries and provinces
Stipulation to, or a contested motion regarding, cost, scope, and volume
