Data Collection and Preservation
Utilizing the optimum software and hardware in our industry, we have the capabilities
to collect and preserve data from virtually any operating system or storage device.
We will capture and maintain the entire drive or one specific file, while at all
times maintaining the veracity of your originals. Furthermore, since we value resourcefulness
we staff computer experts and software engineers to give you the competitive edge
needed to overcoming complex or high-volume collection and preservation issues.
Data Collection
eClaris will help your firm pinpoint the scope of the e-data to be harvested. Common
mediums often include computers, flash drives, Blackberries, PDA's, cell phones,
back up tapes, cameras and servers.
Next, eClaris will help your firm gather, identify and then classify all structured
and unstructured data. Unstructured data predominantly refers to computerized information
that either lacks a specific data structure or has one that is not readily usable
by a computer program. We can handle either format whether stored in fielded form
in databases or annotated (semantically tagged) in documents.
Finally, eClaris will take the harvested data and place it into a secure records
management system. Our records system will allow your firm to store data as well
as to export it to other platforms and will allow for the data to be stored.
Data Preservation
The duty to preserve all potentially relevant information and the ramifications
of failing to do so have been well played out in recent court rulings.
eClaris will provide your firm with specific techniques to maintain the integrity
of electronically stored information. These tips will include formulating an ESI
Preservation Plan to help you enforce litigation holds and assess the relevant legal
requirements along with any timing issues.
eClaris will educate your firm as to the risks and possible penalties associated
with spoliation which, simply put, is the withholding or destroying of relevant
evidence. This will allow your firm to calculate the consequences of choosing not
to fulfill your client's duty to preserve electronic data.
The eClaris staff will rigorously adhere to the collection and preservation tactics
agreed upon in your consultation, cautiously reviewing problem spots or areas of
potential spoliation. Should any concerns occur that were not discussed, a project
manager will immediately contact you.
