Categories: Computer/Internet, e-Discovery Computer Forensics and Electronic Discovery (eDiscovery) TASA ID: On June 28, 2011, at 2 p.m. ET, The TASA Group, Inc., in conjunction with computer forensics and electronic discovery expert Jeffrey Sassinsky, presented a free, one-hour, interactive webinar, Computer Forensics and Electronic Discovery, for all legal professionals.Computer forensics and electronic discovery (eDiscovery) can provide the evidence needed for today's cases and investigations. Electronically stored information (ESI) dominates our lives. From home, to work, and everywhere in-between, we are constantly interacting with computers and electronic devices. Our conversations are recorded in emails and text messages, our location can be recorded in smart phones, and even our driving habits may be recorded in “black-boxes” in our vehicles. This program provides a non-technical examination of where to look for the electronic information that is vital to your cases. For example, you will learn what “hidden” data may be stored with electronic documents that may validate or invalidate their contents. You will see how highly accurate tracking information can be automatically recorded by a smart phone and published to the Internet for all to see. You will discover how deleted .les and emails can often be recovered by a computer forensics technician.Half or more of the evidence relevant to your cases may be stored electronically. To maintain an edge, you must be actively seeking out this information. Remember, even if you are not looking for the electronic information, your opponents probably are.During the program, the presenter covered the following topics: Electronically Stored Information (ESI)Deleted and Leftover DataExamples of Common ESIDefining Discovery ObjectivesUsing ESI in your Cases About the ExpertJeffrey Sassinsky has expertise in many high-technology areas ranging from email messaging to data storage and data recovery.
