January 30 2017 - 7:30AM
FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE:FCN) today announced the Company’s
Technology segment has teamed with Microsoft to provide data
governance and discovery consulting and services for Microsoft
Office 365 users. FTI Technology assists companies with a broad
range of needs around Office 365 usage to ensure legal and
regulatory activities remain cost-effective and defensible.
“Microsoft Office 365 represents a transformational change for
organizations, and this migration offers legal teams an opportunity
to develop and implement industry best practices for e-discovery
and information governance,” said Jake Frazier, a Senior Managing
Director and Leader of the Information Governance & Compliance
Services (IG&CS) practice at FTI Technology. “Using our global
expertise in legal, regulatory and technical matters, we’ve helped
organizations implement Office 365 so that legal and regulatory
requirements are not only accounted for, but are streamlined for
easier and more cost-effective management.”
According to Microsoft, 80 percent of Fortune 500 companies are
using or plan to use Office 365 software and services. FTI
Technology provides a wide range of services to ensure a
cost-effective, safe and defensible Office 365 migration and
implementation, including:
- Data migration: Safely migrate data from
legacy archives to Office 365 while active cases are underway
- Data remediation: Defensibly delete redundant,
old or trivial (ROT) information to reduce cost and data breach
risk
- Legal hold: Update policies and ensure
existing holds are maintained during the migration
- Data privacy: Adhere to data privacy
regulations impacting how and where sensitive information is stored
and transferred
“Cloud-based applications can provide significant cost-savings
for organizations, but legal teams must have a seat at the table to
ensure that legal and regulatory compliance needs are met,” said
Chris Zohlen, a Managing Director within FTI Technology’s IG&CS
team. “Our expertise handling complex legal and regulatory data
matters provides us with a unique skillset to meet the myriad of
challenges involved in migrating to or supporting enterprise data
in the cloud.”
FTI Technology will co-present with Microsoft on a complimentary
webcast, “Microsoft Office 365: Maximizing the Opportunity for
Legal & Regulatory Compliance,” on March 1 at 1 p.m. EST. To
