DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS GOVERNANCE
Streamline eDiscovery with advanced search, case management, analytics, and AI-assisted review for archived communications.
Faster, Easier Discovery
eDiscovery tools help legal teams manage litigation and investigations across growing volumes of digital communications. Advanced search, case management, analytics, and AI-assisted review help teams assess cases earlier, focus on relevant content, and reduce the data sent for external review.
Refine searches, analyse custodians, and identify relevant communications earlier in the process.
Cull content before export so legal teams and outside counsel have a more targeted data set.
Track searches, holds, exports and case activity with centralised workflows and audit trails.
Growing Scope Challenges
Legal teams must respond to eDiscovery requests across more channels, custodians, and data types. As archived communications grow, it becomes more difficult to find relevant content without expanding the scope and cost of review. Teams need the ability to narrow large data sets early while preserving the context, visibility, and control required to make informed review decisions.

eDiscovery software helps legal teams identify, preserve, search, analyse, review, and export electronically stored information (ESI) for litigation and investigations. It helps teams find relevant content earlier and manage legal processes more efficiently. By narrowing large data sets, teams can also reduce the amount of content that requires review.
eDiscovery software helps legal teams assess custodians, search results, and relevant communications early in a matter. Search refinement and analytics help narrow the data, while features like conversation threading and visualisation add context. This can help teams understand a case earlier and focus the scope of review.
eDiscovery software helps legal teams narrow large data sets before document review. Search refinement, conversation threading, and visualisation help reviewers focus on relevant communications and understand them in context. Technology Assisted Review (TAR) can also use machine learning and human input to help identify responsive content.
Electronically stored information (ESI) is digital information that may be relevant to litigation or an investigation. ESI can include email, collaboration content, social media messages, and supported file attachments from digital data sources. eDiscovery tools help legal teams search, preserve, analyse, and review this information.
Proofpoint Discover adds advanced eDiscovery capabilities to Proofpoint Archive, including case management, search refinement, query analytics, visualisation, conversation threading, and Technology Assisted Review. Proofpoint Archive provides the underlying archive with built-in search, legal hold, and export. Together, these capabilities support eDiscovery from early case assessment through review and export.
An eDiscovery solution can search archived content across supported data sources and file types. Archive provides unified search across archived email, social media, and collaboration content, including matches in more than 500 file attachment types. Legal teams can then refine and analyse relevant archived content as part of the review process.
