BYOD and Data Security• Employers are concerned about data– A study by network access solutions provider

Aruba Networks found that nearly 20 percent of U.S. workers have not told their employers that they use a personal mobile device for work.

Law Firms, Ethics, and BYOD• Law firms have extra obligation: • At employment law firm Dowling Aaron, they

understood the dangers of having some 50 attorneys carrying phones with access to client documents but no passcode protection or wipe capabilities.

• "If we end up on the front of the Fresno Bee because an attorney left his phone at the bar... the damage to your reputation could literally be millions of dollars,“ explained CIO Darin Adcock.

Social Media, Cloud: Trends & Impact

• Discovery will only get broader as courts order broad production of social media

Managing Analytics

• Mixed messages on costs: In re Aspartame Antitrust Litig., 817 F. Supp. 2d (E.D. Pa. 2011)

The court awarded costs for standard processing and hosting. The court declined to award costs related to a “sophisticated e-discovery program” as “squarely within the realm of costs that are not necessary”.

Gabriel Techs., Corp. v. Qualcomm, Inc., No. 08CV1992 AJB (MDD), 2013 WL 410103 (S.D. Cal. Feb. 1, 2013)Court awarded over $12 million in attorneys' fees for contract attorney document review and use of Computer-Assisted Review, reasoning that “CAR” was “more efficient and less-time consuming”.

Managing Analytics

• Analytics will significantly reduce the number of documents to be reviewed, the highest % of discovery costs†

• Parties will be expected to turn over all non-priv docs from seed set, including non-responsive docs‡

• Helpful to have a vendor that provides flat fee for analytics
