What is “context-aware eDiscovery”? Brandon D’Agostino of Cloudficient does a great job of introducing context-aware eDiscovery here!

As discussed in his post titled (wait for it!) Introducing Context-Aware eDiscovery: Why Modern Data Requires a Modern Approach (available here), Brandon discusses how the practice of eDiscovery is changing – whether we acknowledge it or not. We’re facing a deeper, more structural shift than we did when we moved from paper to electronic documents – one that fundamentally changes how data is created, shared, stored, and understood.

Yet many of our tools still behave as if we live in a world of files and attachments.

Spoiler: we don’t.

Modern work is collaborative, distributed, and constantly changing across cloud platforms. And that gap – between how organizations work and how eDiscovery tools interpret their data – is where risk, waste, and defensibility problems quietly accumulate.

So, what does modern work actually look like? Why does custodian context break down over time? How does the “Repository Problem” add to these challenges? And how does context-aware eDiscovery address these challenges? Find out here, it’s only one click! Clicking shows that you’re context-aware! 😉
