The Next Big E-Discovery Challenge: Authenticity
Up until now, most of eDiscovery has been basic "blocking & tackling". That meant a lot of cataloging and indexing of data, records retention work, legal holds, destruction policy establishment, and deploying "vaulting" technologies. But the future costs and benefits of eDiscovery will likely pivot on something much different: how you handle authenticity challenges used as a negotiating tactic in a lawsuit.

In order for an organization to maximize the business value from its investment in the creation of corporate information (e.g., creation of IP or proprietary data) it must “unleash” its data to make it available to the right people at the right time anywhere.
A strategy to “lock” up its information in an attempt to preserve its authenticity is just a bad strategy against the best interest of the company. There are “content-level” protections (rights management for confidentiality and control and digital seals for authenticity) that enable the “free” movement of data while effectively mitigating the risks.
