PORTLAND, OR--(Marketwire - June 18, 2009) - Exterro, Inc., a top provider of software
solutions for the legal industry, and Huron Consulting Group, a leading
provider of business consulting services, announced today that they will
co-sponsor an Emerging Technology Session at LegalTech West Coast,
"Building a Smarter E-Discovery Response with Data Mapping," at 1:30 p.m.
PST, Wednesday, June 24. To pre-register for the session, log on to
www.exterro.com.
"Each panelist will provide real-world guidelines that can help companies
and their legal teams take control of litigation preparation and regulatory
response, as well as reap a host of ancillary benefits by properly
utilizing an enterprise data map," said Bobby Balachandran, President and
CEO of Exterro.
FRCP rules require that companies today have complete knowledge of and
timely access to their repositories of potentially relevant electronically
stored data. The trends toward more electronically stored information,
more regulation, and more extensive requests for production during
litigation and regulatory inquiries leaves companies without a
comprehensive data map at risk for spoliation, sanctions and accidental
disclosures. For companies in highly regulated industries, a comprehensive
and well-planned data map offers peace of mind for an uncertain future.
In this session, panelists will address the critical steps all companies
should follow when undertaking a data mapping project, from getting buy-in
from key players on the IT, legal, records management and executive teams,
to using new automated technology for information gathering and critical
maintenance processes. Panelists also will offer insight on how to prepare
for and respond to litigation and regulation by using Huron's proven data
mapping methodology to build a comprehensive data map, and how to leverage
Exterro's Fusion Genome dynamic data mapping technology to properly build,
utilize and maintain the data map.
"I am excited to be on this panel and to share experiences in an area that
has become a growing concern and challenge for many companies. Data
mapping solutions such as Exterro's Fusion Genome provide an efficient and
cost-effective tool for facilitating the building of an enterprise data
map," said Shawn Christen, Managing Director at Huron Consulting Group.
Panel members include: Bruce Phillips, Vice President, Information
Security, Fidelity National Financial; Peter Warner, Corporate Information
Security and Electronic Discovery, Sandia National Laboratories; and Shawn
Christen, Managing Director, Huron Consulting Group. The panel will be led
by Bobby Balachandran, President and CEO of Exterro, Inc.

along with its comprehensive legal process management platform, Fusion
