At the core of Evidence Exchange’s technical offerings is a series of business processes designed to certify the chain of custody of documents through all steps of the process by means of digital notarization. Evidence Exchange is also unique in its expertise around exception handling, an issue that is critical to the integrity of the electronic discovery process and an important cost determinant.
In November of 2006, Evidence Exchange was awarded a US patent for its Electronic Discovery process. This is the first time that an Electronic Discovery process has been patented and was based upon a single patent application filed in 2002. Then again, in August of 2009, we received a second patent surrounding our post-2002 inventions / process enhancements. Overall, the two patents cover 80 claims involving E-Discovery processing.
Our Electronic Discovery Processing technology supports the processing of foreign character sets and all or the more complex processing requirements for detecting and subsequently processing encrypted, password protected files, as well as files embedded in Word files, Excel files and PowerPoint presentations. These are watershed issues in Electronic Discovery Processing and those vendors ill-equipped to address them are likely to wind up in a newspaper headline while subjecting their clients to unknown risk, exposure, and ridicule.
