KLDiscovery’s Remote Collection Manager (RCMgr) Facilitates Defensible Collections Without In-Person Travel

MCLEAN, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- KLDiscovery announced today that its proprietary Remote Collection Manager (RCMgr®) offering delivers a global alternative to traditional on-site collections, which have recently been impacted by travel restrictions and safety concerns due to coronavirus.

The RCMgr self-collection software allows end-users and IT professionals to perform defensible collections of hard drives, loose files and email servers. An external hard drive is configured to collect pre-defined data, including easy to understand instructions and a return shipping label. Files are encrypted for secure shipment back to KLDiscovery's lab, and clients receive 24/7/365 support by certified forensic analysts.

"The well-being of our clients and their employees is paramount," said Chris Weiler, CEO of KLDiscovery. "Our ability to enable and support forensically-sound self-collections is a critical solution in today’s challenging climate."

Since RCMgr is run by the end user, a client's collection can be performed in any time zone and geography. Additional robust functionality includes full bit-stream DD forensic imaging for Windows and non-Windows devices, the ability to overcome full disk encryptions, targeted collection for Windows and Mac, enterprise collection of Microsoft Exchange (2003+) and Lotus Domino (8.5+), and the option to generate a forensic snapshot to identify locations of interest prior to collection.
