An Ounce of Prevention - nowhere is this
truism more relevant than in the context of corporate litigation.
Organizations find themselves at the intersection of:
(1)
large
volumes and wide varieties of electronic
data,
(2) the requirement to identify and

litigation or notice of litigation or government investigation,
(3) records management systems and information systems that
routinely delete electronic information
which may be relevant to the facts of a lawsuit or government investigation.
