US companies, urged to keep data of employee-generated emails, IM, and more

US companies will need to extend their tracking systems of electronic data to emails, instant messages and other document generated by their employees. The update starts today, after a rule approved by the US Supreme Court in April.
Under the new act, companies and other entities involved in federal litigation are required to produce “electronically stored information” as part of the discovery process, when evidence is shared by both sides before a trial.
Although the new realm of the Internet is social networks, meaning contents are localized, the update process won’t be messy. While it’s still possible to keep tracks of deleted blog posts, like in the Jotspot-Google merger, which results in a “delete post“, keeping tracks of VoIP conversation might force companies to invest in more sophisticate and expensive infrastructures.
