Sherpa software makes ediscovery straightforward and cost-effective for in-house teams. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania – March 23, 2015 – Sherpa Software has announced the introduction of their altitude ediscovery module. sherpa software, a leading supplier of information governance solutions, made the announcement today that it has enhanced its altitude ig® solution with an intuitive ediscovery feature. This new module was developed exclusively for in-house teams to assist with the management of legal hold notifications, search and collection for legal discovery requests, compliance obligations, and internal investigations. “Businesses have realized the advantages of doing electronic discovery searches in-house,” said kevin ogrodnik, president of sherpa software. “[T]hese benefits have been acknowledged by the majority of organizations.” “utilizing your internal resources to cut the number of possibly responsive items can dramatically reduce expenses, the number of outside counsel advising hours required, and will lessen the per-gigabyte storage fees imposed by many review platforms,” Sherpa Altitude IG is an on-demand platform that was developed to provide businesses and other organizations a complete information governance solution. This platform has a hosted back-end, which provides ubiquitous administrative access. At the same time, however, it assures that secure on-premises enforcement for corporate data will continue to be in place. In addition to ediscovery, altitude ig provides modules for data reporting and analytics, as well as policy enforcement. These modules are meant to find, identify, classify, and manage the electronic data of a corporation in an easy and uniform manner. No matter where users are keeping information, altitude ig ediscovery is able to find it, apply a complete set of search parameters, and provide a result set. Both pre-scheduled and ad hoc queries are supported by this tool. cross-matter custodian management enables users to create and handle many matters at the same time. Custodians may be pulled automatically from an organization’s active directory or added manually (ad). Notifications of legal holds are sent to custodians via the application using a method that provides end-to-end notifications of legal holds. It is monitored whether or not the custodian has acknowledged receiving the notice once it has been sent out. While administrative supervision is being provided, notifications may be resent, and individual custodians can be placed under numerous holds at the same time. federated search across several data silos makes accessible a variety of criteria for locating material that is relevant to the particular concerns being discussed. Emails may be searched according to the dates they were sent and received, the senders, the recipients, or the content, while files can be targeted according to the same criteria. It is possible to target any and all material using keywords, phrases, and even patterns of text. This includes pdf files that need a password to open. the following are examples of searchable repositories: emails kept in microsoft exchange mailboxes and archives; emails kept in office 365 mailboxes and archives; pst files located on users’ computers; network shares and files kept on users’ desktops and accessible network shares; archived emails kept in office 365; •content stored in ibm connections and microsoft sharepoint scalable architecture with distributed processing – a collection of the tagged items can be initiated from the console; emails and documents will be collected to a pre-defined collection location in native format within the corporate environment along with an edrm load file, an inventory log of all collected items, and an exception log for further inspection. a collection of the tagged items can be initiated from the console.
