• With more and more enterprises finding themselves under intense scrutiny due to regulatory compliance mandates and litigation pressures, e-mail and document discovery is fast becoming a labor-intensive proposition laced with inconsistency and a small margin of error.
• The rising cost of outsourced specialized services to satisfy e-discovery demands is leading many customers to search for affordable automated in-house capabilities they can manage and run themselves, analysts say.
• "One of the largest challenges facing organizations having to deal with electronic discovery is the sheer volume of data," said George Socha, president of Socha.
• "What [MetaLincs] is offering is a set of analytic tools to help companies more quickly home in on, visualize and prioritize volumes of information that matters most.
• MetaLincs' E-Discovery analysis software features indexing, processing, search, review, reporting and production functions.
• PointerIBM releases an open-source search and text analysis technology.
• People Analysis enables users to display a network of the most important people involved with the subject matter in question and the communication patterns for any topic.
• This can reveal any unexpected parties that have access to sensitive information and help guide investigators or auditors toward any relevant conversations.
• "[The E-Discovery software] is about seeing the big picture," Williams said.
• "It analyzes the results of who is the most important person receiving and creating content on that topic in the company.
• "You can see who they're talking to and exactly what they're saying---it's architected for analysis to give you much easier access to important information without having to do intensive view processes."
• By contrast, the application's Thread Analysis functionality identifies complete sets of threads associated with any topic and organizes them into groups of as many as five related threads, or side conversations.
