e-discovery software and outsourcing insights?

My team's experience with digital forensics is largely related to security incident handling, but we've seen an uptick in requests related to e-discovery and I expect such requests to grow significantly over at least the next few years. The work required to honor the requests has been extremely time-intensive. I'm interested in feedback about alternatives that may reduce the burden on my team while allowing the university to more effectively handle e-discovery requests. Internal legal counsel are really the owners of the process, but since there are currently no viable alternatives in place, Information Security is heavily involved. Do you have experience or insights about e-discovery platforms that cover all phases of the process after data collection (processing, searching, analysis, reviewing, production, etc.)? Do you have experience or insights about any third-party providers who offer services that cover all phases of the process after data collection? *Any* feedback is appreciated. And though cost isn't the only thing I'm interested in finding out about, *any* ballpark information about cost would be helpful. I searched my educause-security archives over the last year and didn't see any relevant discussion. I'd prefer replies on-list so others can benefit from the discussion, but off-list feedback is more than welcome. In case it's relevant, my university has 32k students, 10k employees and IT as it relates to data storage and device management is split fairly evenly between central and distributed management. -- Steve Werby Information Security Officer Virginia Commonwealth University VCU Information Security - http://infosecurity.vcu.edu/ News, Tips & More - http://www.twitter.com/vcuinfosec Best Practices - http://infosecurity.vcu.edu/docs/infosecbp.pdf
