Achieve More Confidence in Preserving What Matters
Modern organizations automate retention and deletion to meet privacy and security priorities. Legal teams still need defensible preservation when disputes arise.
Examine how continuous deletion creates preservation risk and how teams can align legal, IT, privacy, compliance, and security before systems remove or transform relevant data. Join Epiq in this virtual Sedona Conference session during eDiscovery Day Canada.

Modern organizations are doing exactly what regulators, privacy laws, and security teams have been pushing them to do: retain less data, delete it faster, and automate the process wherever possible.
At the same time, legal teams remain responsible for ensuring defensible preservation when litigation, investigations, or regulatory inquiries arise.
This panel explores what happens at the collision point between those two mandates.
The discussion will examine:
How modern data governance and minimization strategies can unintentionally undermine legal hold obligations.
What “reasonable steps” look like when deletion is automated and continuous.
Where responsibility truly sits when legal, IT, privacy, security, and compliance priorities collide.
How AI systems change data behaviour even when AI is not the headline use case.
