eDiscovery and Legal Holds

Centralize content for eDiscovery and legal holds

Streamline how content is identified and preserved for litigation

eDiscovery is one of the most important — and often the most expensive — parts of the litigation process. But manually collecting content for eDiscovery can be time-consuming, and content fragmentation at many companies makes it hard to find, preserve and analyze the content needed for litigation. Using Box, companies can streamline and improve how content is discovered and preserved for litigation matters, all without impacting the experience of end users. 

Streamline the eDiscovery process and reduce costs

Centralize all of your data in Box, eliminating data silos and reducing the impact of legal holds on end users. Save time and money spent on sending employees to different offices to collect content.

Secure and preserve sensitive content automatically

Set robust user permissions, folder controls and security classifications — ensuring that existing content is not deleted or viewed by non-approved users. Reduce the risk of data spoliation and pre-trial fines or evidentiary sanctions. 

Increase chances of favorable legal outcome
