Opis

Although we live in an era in which we are surrounded by an ever-deepening fog of data, few of us truly understand how the data are created, where data are stored, or how to retrieve or destroy data-if that is indeed possible. This book is for all of you, whatever your need or interest.

Electronically Stored Information: The Complete Guide to Management, Understanding, Acquisition, Storage, Search, and Retrieval, Second Edition explains the reasons you need to know about electronic data. It also gets into great detail about the how, what, when, and where of what is known in legal circles as electronically stored information (ESI).

With easy-to-understand explanations and guidelines, this book provides the practical understanding you need to effectively manage the complex world of ESI. Whether you are an attorney, judge, paralegal, business manager or owner, or just one of the ever-growing population of computer users, you will benefit from the information presented in this book.

Recenzje

"Matthews has approached e-discovery from a fresh, new perspective—one that is understandable to the layperson as well as the technologist. ... A must-read for anyone in the information technology and legal professions, the book provides invaluable information to be proactive or reactive in responding to requests of electronically stored information. ... This book goes a long way in removing the intimidation factor between IT, the corporate legal department, and outside counsel. This book should be required reading for anyone in a computer science, information technology, or law-related program, and is now part of the Digital Forensics and the Law course I instruct. If you want to get up to speed on e-discovery and actually understand what you read, you’ll buy this book."
—Steve Hailey, President & CEO, CyberSecurity Institute; Digital Forensic Examiner; and Educator
