E–Discovery Readiness

Electronically stored information (ESI) is everywhere. Is your company prepared in the event of an investigation?

It used to be that a robust file cabinet system and an off-site storage vendor ensured proper retention and protection of corporate information. The current electronic environment produces voluminous amounts of data and exposes confidential, private, and proprietary information to potential disclosure. The ease with which electronic information can be copied and transferred results in data being dispersed across the organization, making it more and more difficult to control and locate.

Managing the retention of what you need (and disposing of what you don't) while staying fully compliant with legal, regulatory and other business obligations has become a major challenge. For many companies, this electronic environment exposes them to increased risk to their brand reputation, increased legal liability, and costly discovery efforts.

The following brochure discusses the many reasons why companies need to take e-discovery readiness seriously and how PwC can help prepare you for a potential investigation or a civil or criminal case.
