Explore the frontier of electronic discovery in the cloud
Cloud Computing and Electronic Discovery comprehensively
covers the quickly-evolving realm of e Discovery in cloud computing
environments, a computing and legal frontier in which the rules and
legal precedents are being developed anew seemingly by the day. The
book delves into this fascinating and rapidly-developing topic to
prepare fraud investigators, legal professionals, forensic
accountants, and executives understand the ramifications of storing
data with third party providers and how such storage mechanisms
relate to the limits of discovery practices.
This up-to-date resource also includes a complete discussion of
the few existing legal precedents and current cases that are
shaping interpretation of discovery laws in the cloud space, a
perfect overview for executives storing their companies’ data in
the cloud and the legal professionals tasked with understanding and
interpreting the discovery rules surrounding that data. The book is
comprehensive in scope and includes:
* An overview of current trends in cloud computing, including
potential information that should be considered in an investigation
that involves data held by a cloud service provider
* Updates on current and proposed laws governing discovery of
information held by a third party cloud service provider
* Updates on legal cases that address the issues of the
Electronic Communication Privacy Act, the Federal law prohibiting
release of information by a third party provider
* Practical guidance on how to consider the availability of cloud
data relevant to an investigation, and how to include this data in
discovery plans
For business, accounting, and legal professionals, Cloud
Computing and Electronic Discovery is an invaluable resource
for understanding the nuanced development of cloud e Discovery
policies, practices, and law as they continue to unfold and
develop.
