  • Know all the custodians that are involved in litigation or Legal Hold.

  • Know when a user was added and/or removed from a Legal Hold.

  • Show the data, data size, and frequency of data that is collected for a custodian as part of a litigation.

  • Know the amount of data that is exposed to any eDiscovery tool, for verifying the authenticity of the electronic data.
