ZyLAB Releases New Whitepaper: "Identification and Legal Hold with ZyIMAGE"
Paper Outlines How to Address the Electronic Discovery Reference Model's Identification, and Legal Hold Processes Using ZyLAB Solutions
McLean, VA - December 01, 2008 - ZyLAB an innovative developer of Information Access Solutions, today announced that it has released a new white paper that offers readers information on how organizations can benefit from ZyIMAGE IAP software for the identification and legal hold processes as they are defined in the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (www.EDRM.net). When ZyIMAGE is used for the archiving and management of electronic files, e-mail and paper, the identification and legal hold processes are simplified. However, even without using ZyIMAGE for all repositories, organizations can still greatly enhance their operational efficiency and processing capabilities using ZyIMAGE software products as described in this white paper.
Whitepaper Abstract:
- Using ZyIMAGE Records Management or the ZyIMAGE Information Access Platform to manage electronic, paper or e-mail files also eases the implementation of retention, identification, legal hold, preservation and collection tasks. In many cases, these tasks are compromised due to large amounts of data not being archived or properly managed or large organizations not being able to fully account for the data contained at remote sites with various storage devices. The whitepaper outlines how organizations can use the ZyIMAGE software to help remedy these instances by identifying which electronic and physical data need to be collected and which custodians and IT groups need to be included in the legal hold.
- Since 2005, more than 300 experts from over 125 organizations have worked to establish a set of best practices for e-discovery, and the result of this effort is the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM). ZyLAB is a participant in the EDRM project. The EDRM provides a sequence of processes for taking very large amounts of raw data and refining it to find relevant information while minimizing the amount of non-relevant documents which must be reviewed manually. In addition to profiling how ZyLAB's ZyIMAGE tools support the legal hold and identification processes, this whitepaper also explains how organizations can use ZyIMAGE tools to implement the conservation, collection, processing, reviewing, analyzing and legal production phases of the EDRM model.
