Vital to your litigation is a strict and consistent methodology. And it starts the minute we begin working together. Collection Strategies-A true blue print. First, we arrive at an understanding of your infrastructure: Servers. Back-up systems. Protocols for access and archives. Anti-virus systems. Organizational charts, office maps, job titles. And IT staffs procedures, back-up contact information and their protocols. Once a clear picture has been sketched, either targeted or forensic collection plans are developed. Then and only then does technology step in. Data Collection: The hunt begins. Once we’ve identified and analyzed home computers, laptops, Blackberry devices, voice and email systems, archives and now, even iPods, for valuable missing information, our data collection team does its work. Our collections translate to both domestic and international matters. And whether in response to opposing counsel’s request or your own client’s need to archive data, you are assured of security. By making forensic copies of hard drives, it’s also possible to reach even deleted files. Leaving no doc unturned. Our Tape Restoration goes back to 8-tracks. As embarrassing as that is. What matters is wherever tape documents exist, the best chance of restoring them is here. Whether valuable documents exist within DAT, DLT (1 – 4), AIT, or LTO (1 – 3) formats, we restore them in a consistent manner so that contents are accessed as part of your search. In the end, even compromised tapes can be restored so you can access them quickly and easily. Testimony: We stand behind you. More importantly, we also sit. If needed in deposition, mediation or trial Daegis can confirm the methodology used to collect and process documents. Expert testimony backs up processes along with strictly maintained records such as chain of custody, collection methods. And processing protocols at every turn. Proven and consistent, these collection methods can give you the edge you need to win your litigation.
