Recently, in a discussion I was having with a colleague,

information when it does NOT make them money.

Corporations today have tons
of information and they do not know why they are even keeping the information.
Sometimes, it is because they are in the midst of some potentially very costly
litigation.
While this seems to make sense, it presents a great deal of
complex problems. One may ask why? The simple reason is that everyone knows
that paper is made is at a paper mill and is stored in a physical location, or
in as many locations as copies of the paper instrument are created. In the
electronic world, a fundamental knowledge gap exists and few legal
professionals can answer this in the digital realm. This leaves organizations
with policies that do not synchronize policies with technologies, solutions
that store every digital scrap of information or the converse, and a slew of
other problems. Test it yourself: conduct a simple survey to see if the
lawyers, compliance officers, or records managers can answer this seemingly
simple question?
The real solution is to bridge this gap and work with
specialists to answer these questions, re-work your policies, and deploy
technology.
