Program Summary

Today, remote data collection for litigation is often a convenient option. Cloud applications and servers, and even physical devices, can often be collected with the right equipment, credentials and expertise. Remote collections are often economical and highly practical, particularly in today’s virtual world where employees may not be present in employer offices. However, not all data is equally amenable to remote collection. Attorneys should understand that collection options vary based on target data systems, encryption and security controls, legal rights to access and case needs. Difficulty with truly mobile devices, like smartphones, present their own issues and intricacies. Companies have varying options when it comes to auditing and collecting mobile devices.

Key topics to be discussed:

  • Defensible remote collection techniques
  • How to prepare for remote mobile collection issues
  • Legal rights to access data, including employee devices
  • Admissibility precautions
  • Mobile Controls for Prevention/Isolation
