From RSA: Forensics tools, techniques aid e-discovery investigations
"Forensics tools and techniques can help drive so-called “e-discovery” investigations, Dennis (Jaime) Seibert, a lead forensics investigator in the information security incidence response team at Fifth Third Bank, a regional financial institution in Cincinnati, Ohio, told RSA attendees on Wednesday.
E-discovery investigations can look into the alleged wrong-doings of a terminated employee and/or provide electronic records for use in corporate litigation, Seibert noted in his presentation, titled “Electronic Discovery and Forensics in the Corporate Environment.” Forensics tools and techniques, he noted, are increasingly being used to provide relevant evidence related to e-discovery projects, such as those that investigate fraud or employee misuse of corporate IT resources, Seibert noted."
