[Enterprise Solutions] Using the Latest Technology, HaystackID’s Privacy and Compliance Experts Empower Organizations to Categorize, Remediate, Migrate, and Protect their Sensitive Data.
Knowing where all sensitive data resides and how that data is stored and classified is an important compliance requirement. If you don’t know the type of PII and sensitive IP data you have and how it’s shared, processed, and stored, it is difficult to know if you are complying with privacy regulations and protecting your sensitive IP. If you are facing any of these challenges, HaystackID can help with our strong portfolio of privacy and compliance solutions.
[Media Advisory] eDiscovery and Privacy Expert from HaystackID Available to Discuss the Use of Data Mapping for Handling Complex, High-Risk and Sensitive Data
With data breaches on the rise, complex information governance challenges require a comprehensive approach to understanding an organization’s data profile through the lenses of compliance, privacy and litigation, suggests Jenny Hamilton, Deputy General Counsel for Global Discovery and Privacy at HaystackID. Data mapping – or identifying where high priority documents reside – is the critical exercise to understand your organization’s risk profile and where it ranks on the continuum of compliance with global privacy regulations.
[Industry News] HaystackID Remote Review Expertise Highlighted in Legaltech® News
According to ALM reporter Frank Ready as shared in a recent article in Legaltech News, complex matters may not lend themselves as well to remote document review, thus may force in-house legal teams to be more strategic in their approach to leveraging technology and structuring data. In highlighting this strategic challenge, HaystackID’s Hal Brooks was interviewed and shared the following insight on one way his company proactively manages this challenge as part of a comprehensive reviewer selection process (e.g., registration, qualification, assessment, and certification), coupled with proven best practices, solid onboarding approaches, and systematic training.
Hal Brooks, CEO of e-discovery provider HaystackID, noted that the company is aware that “distractions occur” and plans for that reality during the reviewer hiring process. “We have a vetting process. We have a platform that tracks all of the users’ productivity and shows all of the historical data analysis of their productivity, so that we can basically gauge how much we can engage out of that individual and we properly hire the number of reviewers we need in order to accommodate a deadline,” he said.
