Preserving Electronic Evidence on OpenVMS
Litigation and regulatory matters are a fact of business life, and Electronically Stored Information (ESI), whether electronic messages, system logs, or databases, has become an increasingly important element of many proceedings. Questions concerning authenticity and reliability are often raised long-past actual generation of the information. Proper documentation and preservation require time, but far less time, expense, aggravation, and uncertainty than not having the documentation when it is needed. Discovery contractors are often unfamiliar with OpenVMS. Having reliable, documentable archival information can be the difference between prevailing in a proceeding and expensive settlements and adverse judgements. Attendees will learn the straightforward steps needed to ensure that archival information, including backups, are available and usable when legal process ensues.
