ZyLAB eDiscovery Company Appointed to KMWorld's Hall of Distinction

MCLEAN, VA, May 14, 2012 (Press-News.org) ZyLAB, a leading provider of eDiscovery and information management solutions, today announced that it has been inducted into the "Hall of Distinction" for its unfailing thought-leadership, innovative technologies, and ongoing contributions to the editorial and readership communities of KMWorld magazine. Specifically, ZyLAB has participated in several white papers and webinars to inform knowledge management, IT and legal professionals about the ways in which eDiscovery, enterprise search, and intelligent governance technologies are changing the way business gets done. Some of the most popular titles are as follows.

"The E-mail Dilemma: Balancing Risk and Value" webcast outlined the challenge e-mail archives pose to information governance initiatives and eDiscovery responses. ZyLAB chief strategy officer, Johannes Scholtes, provided strategies for properly archiving e-mail in XML; retaining access to native files, properties and attachments; implementing filing plans; and cleaning-up legacy content.

In his white paper, "Text Analytics: The Next Step in Search," Scholtes went on to define how meta-data, language patterns and other often-overlooked document characteristics can be mined for valuable insight into an organization's information assets or for determining relevance to litigation. And in "Enterprise Search is Only the Start of eDiscovery and Investigation," he profiled the enormous information management challenges faced by Enron investigators and the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, and discussed how enterprise search technology was paired with broader technology for collecting, reviewing, and producing vast amounts of relevant information.

"Over the past 30 years, ZyLAB has helped thousands of organizations to gain greater control of their collective knowledge and stored information," said Scholtes. "I've enjoyed sharing with the KMWorld community the observations, predictions and insights we've gained from our real world experiences."

In Scholtes' popular 2009 white paper, "Maintain Control During eDiscovery," he introduced the cost savings and strategic benefits achieved by organizations that choose to manage at least a portion of the eDiscovery process in-house. This thought-leadership helped spark a trend among Fortune 1,000 companies, making the notion of "bringing eDiscovery in-house" a popular corporate strategy.

"The KMWorld Hall of Distinction is an especially personal designation," said Andy Moore, Publisher of KMWorld. "It acknowledges those organizations that have exhibited their thought-leadership in the form of White Paper contributions, and their support of our educational goals through the KMWorld Webcast Series. The Hall of Distinction also recognizes the superior level of support the designees have given our editors over the years. In short, it shows appreciation to those organizations that, through their contributions in many forms, have set themselves apart -- are distinct -- in the minds of the editors of KMWorld and myself," said Moore.
