Legal Holds / ESI Collection

Remote, Targeted Collection with Built-in Assessment, Processing, Culling and Analytics

Insite Legal Hold addresses the electronically stored information (ESI) preservation and collection requirements of enterprises and simplifies the process of litigation and regulatory investigation preparedness.

Enterprises are now faced with myriad ongoing eDiscovery and compliance-related challenges requiring quicker, more accurate control over ESI. Assessing exactly what ESI an enterprise has and how harmful or helpful it will be, and being able to locate, retrieve, process and cull such ESI are the most important factors in managing the risks and costs associated with litigation and regulatory and internal investigations. To effectively meet these challenges, both IT and legal departments must become proactive so they are adequately prepared to act when the next such request arrives.

Sophisticated Early Case Assessment — Before Collection Occurs

Utilizing Insite Legal Hold's unique Explore-in-Place™ technology, users can analyze ESI for litigation or investigative purposes, in-place and before it has been collected. Additionally, sophisticated search and robust filtering tools identify relevant data for early analysis. Users can then defensibly collect and hold only the necessary data for any given proceeding, thereby dramatically reducing the cost and risk associated with legal holds.

Collect Only What Is Needed

In this early stage analysis, relevant data is identified in its original location without the need to migrate to a central repository. As a result, processing and culling can be done at the document source to expedite the process. In addition to processing, which includes NIST filtering, culling is performed to the individual item level (so for example, only specific e-mails and attachments are returned, not entire Outlook .pst files). As all relevant metadata and full text are extracted as part of this process, costly processing charges are avoided.  Additionally, the significant risk and downstream review costs from over-collection are mitigated.

Proactive Preservation and Hold Management

Insite Legal Hold can be run ad hoc or on a scheduled basis, as desired. Those named frequently in litigation and investigations (e.g. “C” level executives), can be monitored on a scheduled basis. When a new lawsuit or investigation arises, enterprises are instantly prepared. As a result, Insite Legal Hold helps monitor and mitigate the risks associated with spoliation of evidence.
