Sherpa Software Makes eDiscovery Easy and Affordable for In-House Teams Sherpa Software Launches Its Altitude eDiscovery Module PITTSBURGH, PA. – March 23, 2015 – Sherpa Software, a leading provider of information governance solutions, today announced that they have added an easy to use eDiscovery module to its Altitude IG® solution. The new module is built specifically for in-house teams to help manage legal hold notification, search and collection for legal discovery requests, compliance requirements or internal investigations. “Organizations have recognized the benefits of conducting electronic discovery searches in-house,” said Kevin Ogrodnik, president of Sherpa Software. “Leveraging your internal resources to shrink the number of potentially responsive items significantly decreases costs, the number of outside counsel consulting hours needed, and minimizes the per-gigabyte hosting fees imposed by many review platforms.” Sherpa Altitude IG is an on-demand platform designed to provide organizations with a comprehensive information governance solution. This platform features a hosted back-end, which offers ubiquitous administrative access – and at the same time ensures secure, on-premises enforcement for corporate data to remain in place. In addition to eDiscovery, Altitude IG offers data reporting and analytics and policy enforcement modules designed to conveniently and consistently locate, identify, catalog and manage corporate electronic data. Regardless of where users are storing information, Altitude IG eDiscovery can locate the content, apply a set of comprehensive search criteria and create a result set. Searches can be scheduled or on-demand. Cross-matter custodian management - Create and manage multiple matters simultaneously, Custodians can either be added manually or drawn automatically from the organization’s Active Directory (AD). Legal hold notifications - An end-to-end legal hold notification mechanism notifies custodians through the application. Both the dispatch and the acknowledgement of the notification by the custodian are tracked. Notices can be re-sent and multiple holds can be applied to individual custodians while providing administrative oversight. Federated search across multiple data silos - A number of criteria are available to identify content relevant to the specific matters. Emails may be searched based on sent/received dates, senders, recipients or content while files may be targeted based on the similar criteria. All content (including password protected PDF files) may be targeted by keywords, phrases and patterns of text. Searchable repositories include: • Emails stored in Microsoft Exchange mailboxes and archives • Office 365 mailboxes and archives • PST files located on user’s computers • Network shares and files stored on user’s desktops and accessible network shares • Content stored in IBM Connections and Microsoft SharePoint Scalable architecture with distributed processing - A collection of the tagged items can be initiated from the console; emails and documents will be collected to a pre-defined collection location in native format within the corporate environment along with an EDRM load file, an inventory log of all collected items and an exception log for further inspection.
