Email & Instant Messaging
US computer engineer Ray Tomlinson sent the first email back in 1971. The World Wide Web wasn’t invented until 18 years later, when CERN computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee came up with a solution sharing information on different computers. While email began as a simple communication tool, it’s had almost 45 years to evolve. Today it is also widely used as an information and storage platform. Instead of deleting an email after it is read, for example, most people archive or file it away for later reference.
Veritas Technologies has announced new innovations to Enterprise Vault 12 and Data Insight 5.1 including advanced classification, support for Box, and automated remediation workflows. Together they provide businesses with critical visibility into their unstructured data and empower informed decisions about what critical information to retain and what to delete for compliance, business value and discovery.

Recommind has integrated Microsoft Office 365 into the newest version of Axcelerate, its cloud-based ediscovery platform.

A company’s email server was once the main source of collected end-user data, but now mobile and text messages are an integral part of the eDiscovery process.

The Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) has approved the use of Citrix Worx Mobile Apps for up to PROTECTED level communications in Australia, making Citrix becomes one of the few vendors in Australia able to provide assurances to government departments they can securely access and email official and classified information and systems from a suitable mobile device.
