Abstract:
1. A method for automatically configuring e-discovery data for data leakage prevention, comprising: automatically selecting at least one e-discovery data item for data leakage prevention, wherein the at least one e-discovery data item comprises data associated with a legal court case and is automatically selected for data leakage prevention by at least one e-discovery tool based on the at least one e-discovery data item being identified as at least one of privileged, subject to legal hold, and marked for review; accessing the automatically selected at least one e-discovery data item to automatically generate filtering information, wherein the filtering information defines at least one parameter for controlling a disclosure of the automatically selected at least one e-discovery data item, wherein the filtering information comprises a whitelist associated with the automatically selected at least one e-discovery data item, and wherein the whitelist comprises at least one authorized recipient for the automatically selected at least one e-discovery data item; generating data leakage prevention information for the automatically selected at least one e-discovery data item, wherein the data leakage prevention information is based on at least one fingerprint and at least one rule, wherein the data leakage prevention information is used to filter the automatically selected at least one e-discovery data item, and wherein the at least one rule comprises at least one data leakage prevention rule for filtering the automatically selected at least one e-discovery data item based on one or more of type, name, and content; and communicating with an e-discovery tool to identify the automatically selected at least one e-discovery data item, wherein the at least one e-discovery tool is configured to provide a user interface communicatively coupled to a repository based on the at least one e-discovery data item automatically selected for data leakage prevention.
