CIOLaw.org launches today. This new Web site and blog offer a central site for Chief Information Officers to find information about news surrounding electronically stored information (“ESI”).

In today’s e-world, CIOs are faced with more responsibility than ever to properly archive email and other ESI. Regulations require keeping ESI over long periods of time. New e-Discovery rules add extensive burdens not only to properly maintain email and other ESI in archives, but also to have the ability to quickly modify retention policies. Failing to do so could cost millions.

Dozens of e-Discovery blogs already exist. Some are helpful. Some are meant mainly for lawyers. Some stopped working. CIOLaw.org offers the IT professional a centralized, practical, easy-to-follow guide through the rapidly evolving world of ESI and the legal system. It is written with the non-lawyer in mind.

CIOLaw.org illustrates important e-Discovery concepts using legal cases that CIOs should know. It provides information about basic legal terminology. Moreover, CIOLaw.org will provide up-to-date news about the world of ESI and the law.

Welcome. Send us questions. Send us feedback. We hope CIOLaw.org proves helpful to you.
