In today’s business environment, the fi nancial impact of litigation and compliance responsiveness are becoming some of the biggest issues facing organizations, rippling all the way from the legal team to the offi ces of the CEO and CFO. With legal, compliance and general information discovery demands on the rise, it’s more crucial than ever for organizations to have immediate access to all the information contained in emails and other electronic documents stored on PCs, servers and archived media throughout the entire enterprise.

Transforming an electronic data discovery (EDD) process from a reactive “legal issue” to a proactive, strategic business process that minimizes cost and risk is essential. That is best accomplished by creating an information-governance culture that makes important, relevant information easily available, thus rendering the organization “litigation-ready.”

The only way to gain immediate access to the value inyour data and dramatically reduce litigation costs is toperform many of the traditional post-collection steps atthe data source before collection—at the extreme left ofthe Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM).

VeAGENT is the only tool on the market that delivers a “ReviewReady” data set immediately after collection by moving traditionalmiddle and right side post-collection activities to the extremeleft of the EDRM. By combining four of the EDRM steps(identifi cation,preservation, collection and process) into a singleaction, VeAGENT delivers immediate access to the knowledgecontained in your data.

VeAGENT enables any organization with even a moderatelitigation or regulatory-gathering burden to dramatically reducethe costs of preserving potentially valuable electronically storedinformation (ESI). Currently, VeAGENT is the only tool on themarket that combines all of this functionality. As a result, the cost ofidentifi cation, fi ltering, collection, preservation and processing of ESI can be reduced by up to 80%.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

PROCESS COLLECT

AUTOMATES what has traditionally been a manual collection process by eliminating the need to mirror each individual data source, thus eliminating the cost and inconvenience associated with physical, on-site collections.

CENTRALIZES control of the electronic discovery process through a network-based “Command Module” user interface that allows a single administrator to initiate and manage the identifi cation, collection and preservation of enterprise-wide litigation holds and subsequent collections. Litigation holds and collections can be executed immediately without additional internal or external resources.

NO HARDWARE or major human resource investments. Agents are a licenced software application that are easily downloaded and installed; IT department involvement and business interruptions are minimal.

VeAGENT’s unique combination of benefi ts reduces the cost of electronic data discovery by up to 80% while providing an early window to the knowledge contained in data—so better litigation, regulatory and business decisions can be made faster.

VeAGENT is the only tool on the market that combines data identifi cation, analysis andfi ltering with on-the-fl y processing. This means your data is “Review Ready” immediately after

collection, allowing you to reach better legal and business decisions – sooner.

VeAGENT BENEFITS

VeAGENT FEATURES

INTEGRATED LEGAL HOLD MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

EARLY DATA ANALYSIS PRIOR TO COLLECTION

PROCESSES DATA ON-THE-FLY (dedupe, deNist, Index)

FLEXIBLE VIRTUAL FORENSIC COLLECTION; OVERT OR STEALTH

DATA IS REVIEW READY IMMEDIATELY POST-COLLECTION

ALLOWS REMOTE COLLECTION

CentralizedCommand

Module

At the fi rst sign of litigation the GC launches the Command Center, directly from their desktop, initiating a legal hold.

GC types in requisite criteria; case name, custodians, keywords and fi le types — notifying VeAGENT to begin working.

Intelligent Agent technology combines fi ltering and analytics with collection and processing, collecting ONLY the ESI that matches the criteria.

By combining the collection and processing, approx-imately 80% of tradtitional processing is done during collection on the local machine.

Data is seamlessly transferred to VeREVIEW or a cloud/network storage facility — eliminating spoliation or intentional destruction.

(Ready)

Is a remotely installed applet that passively resides on any machine containing electronic fi les.

The Agent waits for a remote command to begin to identify, collect & preserve potentially relevant ESI.

• Manages each of the key steps of the litigation hold, collection and preservation process with targeted data while it resides in its existing location.

• Administrators can remotely initiate and manage an unlimited number of legal holds and/or data collections with an unlimited number of custodians, search criteria and matters.

• Remotely detects and identifi es custodians, fi le types and fi le owners within date ranges, if necessary.

• Early Data Exploration feature provides fi rst-pass fi ltering of documents based on keywords, custodians, date range and fi le type and then returns a document count to enable search criteria refi nement.

• Collects and transfers only targeted fi les to a SaaS or network-based location for preservation, further analysis and fi ltering as well as document review.

• On-the-fl y processing de-dupes and de-Nists at the time of collection, reducing post-processing collection costs.

• An installed VeAGENT continues to look for new, modifi ed and/or deleted fi les either on a continuous basis or on-command.

• VeAGENT seamlessly integrates with VePROCESS and VeREVIEW or can be exported to other industry review and processing tools as standardized load fi les.

• VeAGENT allows either episodic or scheduled collections of potentially relevant ESI and associated meta-data.
