Tom O’Connor & I had a fun discussion on his popular eDiscovery Channel interview series, discussing Microsoft 365 eDiscovery with John Collins!
John is Executive Director Information Governance with Lighthouse and is a member of their Global Information Governance consulting team comprised of attorneys, technologists, and former regulators and CIOs. The team provides information governance, data privacy, and eDiscovery/eDisclosure consulting services to organizations worldwide. John is also a leading M365 eDiscovery and Information Governance Expert. His expertise has already informed the continuing discussion about discovery of hyperlinked files, which are reflected in my post here about the preservation “nightmare” of hyperlinked files and my post here regarding the need for an E5 license – but not necessarily a full license – to collect cloud attachments in M365.
In our interview, Tom and I discussed Microsoft 365 eDiscovery with John, including many of the considerations associated with its handling of hyperlinked files, how you can collect the “as-sent”/contemporaneous version, how you can limit the collection to just that version and ways to keep the size of your exports. Our discussion with John was so informative, look for a follow-up post to hit the highlights of the discussion soon!
It was a fun and informative discussion with John! Check out our interview with John Collins here or below via the eDiscovery Channel!
