An article by Greg Buckles posted on the eDiscovery Journal website.
This article explores why corporations are reluctant to move eDiscovery workflow processes to Cloud computing models. Mr. Buckles writes, "In a recent analyst briefing on our eDJ top 2012 eDiscovery Trends, Barry Murphy posited that legal and compliance resisted the leap beyond the firewall until they had more public success stories and caselaw. So what are they worried about? Data security was the first concern of a recent law firm client. “How can I assure my client’s that their sensitive ESI is safe and that we are not inadvertently waiving privilege?” Good question."
The article goes on to address certain assumptions made about data security in the Cloud. The article further states, "Moving data to the Cloud is no different than a client sending data to the firm or the firm sending a collection to their favorite provider. It requires reasonable diligence against loss or exposure. Today, that means encryption." The article then goes on to discuss the value of encryption, and why it is important for corporations to being implementing protocols to protect the security of their data.
