Information Governance

Exploding growth of corporate data — whether stored on servers, in the cloud or on employee devices — presents new challenges and opportunities for organizations. To ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, prevent costly issues, and maintain business continuity, organizations are faced with an ever-growing list of complicated tasks. These include updating litigation hold, preservation and e-discovery tools and processes; properly storing sensitive data, including client information and intellectual property; securing proprietary data when employees leave or divestitures or mergers occur; and migrating data to cloud applications and remediating information within legacy applications. When organizations need expert support, they rely on FTI Consulting.
