Deleted e-mails…backdated financial transactions…compromised privacy…altered business documents. The ease with which electronic records can be manipulated is putting data integrity on trial like never before.
With the authenticity of electronic records now being challenged in court, an entire case can hinge on your ability to defend the processes, people and technology used to preserve and authenticate your electronic evidence.
Are your electronic records litigation ready? Now more than ever, you need the ability to conclusively prove that your subpoenaed electronic records have never been altered throughout their chain of custody. You need AbsoluteProof® from Surety.
Legal credibility | Trustworthy electronic evidence
In the face of a legal or regulatory dispute, your business records are the first things subpoenaed by opposing counsel. With the explosion of computer systems and email, today’s lawyers are aggressively targeting electronic data for discovery in all types of litigation cases.
The burden of proof is on you to establish the legal credibility of computerized evidence. AbsoluteProof is your expert witness, conclusively proving that an electronic record existed at a particular point in time and has not been altered since.
E-Discovery | Reducing litigation costs
With the massive amounts of information now being created, printing and storing hard copies in order to prove data integrity is a very costly defense.
Worse yet, finding and producing those documents in time for a legal proceeding can be nearly impossible and cost exponentially more.
