Overview: When companies are hit with a lawsuit, IT leaders are often ill-prepared for an e-discovery request. For instance, does your company have formal e-discovery policies? Do you know what data to store and how long to store it? IT leaders who stumble trying to answer these questions may be setting their company up for huge fines and sanctions.

In this TechRepublic Special Report, e-discovery expert Tom Olzak offers practical advice for setting up your data policies and raising end user awareness to make the processes easier. Best-selling IT author Debra Littlejohn Shinder educates you on laws relating to digital evidence and offers details about laws of admissibility of evidence.

It might surprise you to find out what you should be doing with regard to data management and legal compliance.
