In this session, we will discuss the importance of data compliance and retention, effective ways to assess risk, and practical discovery when dealing with ephemeral messaging apps (Teams, WhatsApp etc.).

With no relative permanence or search-ability, numerous issues arise for employers, especially with eDiscovery and litigation.
