Industry experts estimate that new data is created at the rate of about an Exabyte per day.

As technology professionals, we attempt to deal with our share of this data overflow on an ongoing basis. We create new systems and add various types of media to hold it all, but when we absolutely have to locate all of it, do we really know where it all exists? For most organizations, the answer is no.

With this webinar we would like to discuss where the non-obvious data exists on your systems, why you might need to know, and who might be asking for it. This web seminar is for all levels of IT management.

The topics to be covered will be:

• What is discovery and why does an IT professional need to care?
• Who is going to be demanding your data and what they will do with it?
• Forensic Data – the hidden resource most people know how to ask for, but very few know how to get
• Preparing for the inevitable by planning ahead
