While many IT, legal, risk and compliance professionals expect their companies’ e-discovery efforts and challenges to increase in the next few years, most don’t expect their companies to be very effective at dealing with those challenges, according to a new survey released by the Deloitte Forensic Center.
During the next three years, 49 percent of those polled expect their companies’ information technology department to increase e-discovery efforts; 44 percent expect e-discovery challenges to increase, and 39 percent expect to devote more resources to e-discovery, according to a survey of more than 330 IT, legal, risk and compliance professionals conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit on behalf of the Deloitte Forensic Center.
