Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

A legal hold is a process by which an organization instructs its employees or other relevant parties to preserve specific data for potential litigation. A legal hold is triggered when litigation is reasonably anticipated, such as when law enforcement officials inform an organization that an investigation has begun. The first step the organization should take is to initiate a legal hold to ensure that relevant evidence is not deleted, destroyed, or altered. A legal hold also demonstrates the organization's good faith and compliance with its duty to preserve evidence. Verified Reference:

Ah, the joys of compliance. It's like playing hide-and-seek with the law, except the seeker has a badge.

But shouldn't they also review the subpoena to understand the scope of the investigation?

Subpoena? I thought this was an episode of CSI, not a courtroom drama.

Initiate a legal hold? That's like putting a lock on the data before the cops even knock on the door.
