Craig Carpenter, the CEO of X1, a data search tool that can be used for e-discovery and to track data, spoke to Corporate Counsel about how X1 is being used in the wake of CCPA and GDPR and skills GCs who hope to move to the C-suite should have.

X1’s focus is on unstructured data. Originally built as a desktop search tool, the technology now focuses on e-discovery and investigations, looking to find, analyze and act on unstructured data at the end point before it moves downstream to review. Speaking with Legaltech News last week, Carpenter said X1’s position aligns well of with his vision of the e-discovery marketplace, where the goal is to “move the strategy formation phase up to the beginning, as opposed to later in the process.”

Enforcement of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), begins May 25, 2018, and significantly reshapes the information governance landscape for organizations worldwide that control, process or store the data of European residents.

Hear from experts at Duff & Phelps, Foley & Lardner, and X1 on: prioritizing GDPR compliance actions; successes and cautions learned up to now; why an effective and operational information governance capability is essential to GDPR compliance; and more.
