Intelligent Collections™

In recent years, the courts and clients have been setting higher standards and expectations for information gathering for legal counsel. It’s been said that a requesting party ought to be able to obtain discoverable material from an electronic source to the same extent as from a file cabinet. At the first hint of litigation, relevant documents need to be located and protected from spoliation. Yet the methods of eDiscovery in use today are too often disruptive, expensive, and slow.

ONSITE³'s Intelligent Collections™ service facilitates electronic discovery by automating the collection of electronically stored information, including metadata, from active network systems, either for a specific IP range or across an entire corporate network.

ONSITE³'s Intelligent Collections™ service provides users the following benefits:

• Forensically sound, defensible collections
• Improved information management with pre-defined and customizable reports
• Ease of use and non-intrusive, meaning that the appliance will not disrupt business operations and requires only minimal involvement from IT personnel
• The resulting data collections can be completed much more efficiently than with traditional methods offered by other eDiscovery and computer forensic providers

Automating the Collection Process

ONSITE³'s Intelligent Collections™ service is non-intrusive, meaning that it will not disrupt business operations and requires only minimal involvement from IT personnel. To minimize costs, the service utilizes filtering and de-duplication to narrow the universe of potentially responsive and relevant documents. Content can be filtered by file type, custodians, dates, and various other parameters including de-duplication based on the SHA-1 algorithm designed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. ONSITE³'s service can also filter content by file signatures, enabling clients to remove irrelevant files based on digital signatures from the National Software Reference Library (http://www.nsrl.nist.gov). The resulting data collections can be completed much more efficiently than with traditional methods offered by other eDiscovery and computer forensic providers.

Powered by Deepdive Technologies, there are no agents or software to install on target systems and the appliance platform does not need to join the client's network domain. Collected files are also saved with their directory structure and metadata preserved on a hot-swappable drive, which can be archived or sent to ONSITE³ for further analysis and production.

Results can optionally be made searchable for assessments of the types and locations of data on the network. For more information, ask about our Data Cataloging service.
