Exterro, a provider of unified electronic discovery software, unveiled the newest advancements to the Exterro Fusion e-discovery suite.

Building on Exterro's capabilities to deliver predictive technologies for application prior to e-discovery review, Fusion Predictive Intelligence enables corporations to significantly reduce data volumes with advanced machine learning across multiple phases of the Electronic Discovery Reference Model.

In this newest release, the data management capabilities in Exterro Fusion have been bolstered with the following advancements:

Automatic Document Categorization: Employs advanced analytics to increase legal efficiency and reduce risk by assigning pre-defined labels, or tags, to documents at the time of collection. Legal teams can leverage the technology for both legal and compliance purposes, such as culling irrelevant documents for faster identification of potentially relevant evidence; uncovering sensitive documents that contain personally identifiable information, such as social security numbers; and protecting documents that are likely privileged.

Wiki/Web Collector: Fusion users can now capture text from online information portals, including Wikis and corporate intranet sites during in-place early case assessment and collection.

Advanced File Handling: Exterro Fusion now supports direct ingestion of forensic files into the ESI Vault; a new Fusion Zeta File Utility for unlocking encrypted and password-protected documents, and new connectors for accessing archiving and data storage systems, including Symantec Enterprise Vault.

Data Analytics: Users can now easily identify evidence that has been deleted or changed during both pre- and post-collection phases with new ESI comparison reports. Expanded keyword hit reports facilitate the automatic identification of evidence by both relevancy and quantity.

Expanded Managed Services Capabilities: Processing and production capabilities in Exterro Fusion have been expanded to include smart custodian ingestion, detailed production settings, advanced load file settings and the ability to include ancestors in the production set.

Exterro's newest advancements are immediately available. More information on the full capabilities of Exterro Fusion is available on its Website.
