MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, Feb 05 (MARKET WIRE) --
Kazeon Systems, Inc., a leading provider of intelligent eDiscovery solutions,
today announced the availability of its Early Case and Risk Assessment
Services. The new service offerings enable legal and IT departments to
dramatically
reduce the time it takes to retrieve information and to provide enterprises
with a clear view into all of their potential risk areas. Through these
services, enterprises will gain valuable insight into the state of their PCI,
HIPAA, GLBA and SOX compliance efforts while dramatically improving their
ability to meet FRCP guidelines for eDiscovery.
Kazeon's Early Case and Risk Assessment services help companies evaluate
legal
matters, risk levels and risk factors and automate business processes, based on
customer-specific rules and policies. These assessments include in-depth search,
identification, collection, preservation, processing and first-pass analysis and
review
of electronically stored information (ESI). As a result, companies can address
active legal matters faster and more efficiently and support more proactive IT
securitymanagement policies.
Leveraging the Kazeon Information Server, these services provide customers
with a
starting point for indexing, classifying and managing ESI to quickly address
pressing, active legal matters that demand rapid retrieval of responsive ESI
for early case assessments or to ensure that sensitive, business-critical or
confidential information residing on corporate networks is identified and
managed.
The Kazeon Information Server creates a legally defensible audit trail of
actions
and can also build the foundation for a proactive "eDiscovery-ready"
environment.
"Kazeon services help companies to put corporate, IT and legal polices
intopractice by leveraging the Kazeon Information Access Platform, Information
Server and
industry best practices," said Ellis Ishaya, Kazeon vice president of service
and support. "These services not only provide customers with visibility into
their potential risk areas, but more importantly, we help them to take action
on this information."
In addition to services delivered by Kazeon, the Kazeon products and
technology are designed for certified partners to use in the delivery of
eDiscovery, Information Security & Privacy and Governance, Risk &
Compliance services to customers.
"Evolving Solutions has used the Kazeon Information Server to deliver PCI
and
GLBA risk assessment services to a major financial institution in
Minneapolis," said Jaime Gmach, president of Evolving Solutions. "We were
able to deliver comprehensive information on the security of their data, make
recommendations and provide them with validation of their corporate policies
through meaningful reports."
"Delve Information Group helps to proactively clean-up and categorize
corporate
content before litigation occurs. To effectively find the needle in the
haystack, it helps to get rid of the hay and Kazeon helps us do that," said
Brian Tuemmler, Founding Partner of Delve Information Group. "The obvious
beneficiaries are litigation support staff, but also IT, records management
and the bottom line."
Kazeon recently introduced version 3 of the Information Server and
Information Center product lines. Version 3 provides a full spectrum of
proactive and reactive eDiscovery solutions in response to litigation,
information security and privacy, corporate investigations, regulatory
compliance and storage
consolidation requirements. The Kazeon Information Server software automates
eDiscovery functions from identification through processing, first-pass review
and
analysis. With independent benchmark verification, Kazeon version 3 delivers an
industry-leading cost per gigabyte of $4.30 to process ESI in preparation for
eDiscovery matters and the industry's highest performance for full content
indexing at 47MB/sec. Kazeon's performance re-writes the industry standard
of$1500-$2000 per gigabyte of current solutions.
Version 3 contains several industry firsts, including targeted Single Step
Collection, native connectivity to live Microsoft Exchange servers, integrated
eMail threading for first-pass review and analysis, and federated searching,
reporting and management for distributed enterprises. Kazeon's Information
Server has
been specifically designed to enable companies to significantly shorten the time
it takes to identify, collect, process and analyze electronically stored
information (files and eMail), thereby curtailing unnecessary eDiscovery costs.

by up to 80 percent.
