Many legal professionals still associate mobile collections with shipping devices across the country, waiting weeks for forensic imaging, and collecting everything “just in case.” But mobile collection has evolved.
In this episode of In Discovery Mode, ModeOne VP of Sales Micah Rasmussen discusses why organizations are moving away from full-device collections, particularly in BYOD environments, and embracing targeted, remote collections that prioritize relevant data while protecting employee privacy.
Micah explains how today’s technology allows organizations to collect specific apps, date ranges, and participants remotely, eliminating unnecessary shipping, reducing disruption for custodians, and dramatically shortening collection timelines. Key topics include:
- Why organizations are rethinking full-device collections
- The privacy risks of over-collection in BYOD environments
- How remote targeted collections compare to traditional forensic imaging
- Why faster collections improve legal workflows
- Why collecting the right data is more valuable than collecting all the data
Whether you’re managing internal investigations, responding to litigation, or modernizing your eDiscovery workflows, this episode offers practical insight into how mobile collections are changing, and why legal teams should rethink long-held assumptions.
