White House Told to Disclose if Email is on Backup Tape


Filed under: Backup Tapes — admin @ 5:23 pm

A federal judge has ordered the White House to reveal if millions of missing emails might be stored on backup tapes.  I found the following to be an interesting passage in the article:

“Facciola noted the importance of acting quickly since e-mails that might be retrievable from individual computer workstations in the White House “are increasingly likely to be deleted or overwritten with the passage of time.”"

Judge Facciola understands the volatility of digital evidence and the criticality of getting to the data quickly before it’s lost.
