Forensic investigation support: eDiscovery services for business
Who owns eDiscovery in a corporate? In our experience eDiscovery activities span many teams, from data identification and collection that are completed by IT, to internal investigations undertaken by HR, to litigation matters which are managed by the Legal team.
With so many stakeholders and use cases, it can be challenging to identify the right tools for the job (Microsoft out-of-the-box or specialist eDiscovery platform) and the right combination of in-house skills vs outsourced service provider for maximum efficiency and cost effectiveness.
Soaring data volumes
Corporate data volumes are skyrocketing, making it harder to maintain a lean and clean data estate. As a result, your eDiscovery data collection timelines, accuracy, risk profile and expenses may be spiralling out of control.
Unlocking Microsoft 365
You may already have powerful eDiscovery and risk mitigation tools at your fingertips, just waiting for you to unleash their potential to streamline your investigations and eDiscovery activity.
Proactive risk reduction
A low-risk appetite or strict regulatory environment may demand a more proactive approach to risk mitigation. eDiscovery tools and techniques that are typically used reactively can also be deployed proactively to mitigate fraud risks effectively.
