Existing system
If your data storage infrastructure is working, you should take great care in making it eDiscovery compliant without disruptions to its operations. A compliance-oriented system should not interfere with normal everyday functions of the existing software and hardware infrastructure.
It would be nice to find means to avoid introduction of changes into a stabile and functioning logics of your system. Such changes generally lead to introduction of potential instabilities in its work and may lead to huge expenses for testing and bug-fixing. There is a way to avoid these inconveniences - give access to your documents stored inside your system as if they were files and folders on a virtual disk. You may object that in-house development of such virtual disk capabilities requires serious investments (thousand of man hours of a highly skilled labor). The Callback File System will solve this problem for you.
Callback File System is a software component for developers allowing virtual real-time representation of any data as files and folders of an ordinary file system. The files may be accessed through a currently used software without necessity to write adapters, parsers, or converters. Callback File System is based on a kernel-mode driver and, therefore, necessitates implementation of only limited number of callback functions, without need for low level file system programming. Use of Callback File System allows your developer to implement all new FRCP provisions in the shortest amount of time. The main arguments for use of Callback File System to increase eDiscovery compliance of a computer infrastructure are the following: - Presentation of any data as files and folders improves preparedness for an eDiscovery event. Good document organization and their availability makes an investigation possible, and reduces the time law-enforcement officers need to find necessary documents, regardless of their format or location. You can arrange your documents by simulating virtual folders within month-day-year, thematic, or any other hierarchy.
- To facilitate eDiscovery procedure, the data comprising e-mails and instant messages must be made easily accessible to investigators. Functionality of Callback File System permits presentation of this unstructured content as regular files, thus making search through them as easy as an ordinary Windows search. The distributed nature of Callback Files Systems makes possible single-run searches of data spread across several platforms and storages.
- Callback File System allows presentation of data in any format stored either locally or remotely: in database records, on mobile devices, in Internet storage, spread over several data storages, or elsewhere.
- Use of Callback File System allows assignment of the data access privileges scheme, which makes possible setting restriction on read and write operations, or, to protect data from tampering, by giving read-only access.
To summarize: with the help of Callback File System your developers will be able to adapt an existing information system to recent FRCP requirements quickly and without significant system downtime.
