About the Session

Internal investigations have never been more complex. Corporate investigators must respond to whistleblower reports, regulatory inquiries, cyber incidents and employee misconduct, often across multiple jurisdictions and business units. At the same time, they must preserve and analyse cloud, mobile and collaboration data (Teams, Slack, WhatsApp, etc.) under strict privacy and labour rules.

This session brings together E-discovery, Data Privacy and Digital Forensic professionals to discuss how to run defensible investigations that withstand regulator, court and board scrutiny - without overwhelming already stretched teams.
