Court Tells White House to “Collect and Preserve” All Email in .PST Format
The legal jousting between the White House and a U.S. district judge over email records offered a new technical twist. According to an eWeek article last week, Judge John Facciola requested that the Bush administration collect and preserve all email in PST. file format.
Industry experts cite the vulnerability of this approach as .PST files are easily corruptible and can be altered.
Political, legal, technical or otherwise, there is no excuse for email archiving ignorance. You need to think about your organization’s policy and process, and implement a system that will enable you to mitigate your risk.
What if you were subpoenaed today?
