As the year ends, digital investigations and eDiscovery continue moving fast. Data and sources keep expanding, systems keep logging, and evidence keeps evolving. In the holiday spirit, we’re reimagining a well-known Christmas classic with a Pinpoint Labs twist, one that connects with forensic investigators, eDiscovery experts, and legal teams alike.
’Twas the Night Before Collections
’Twas the night before Collections,
and across every site,
Not a dataset stirred
not an endpoint in sight.
The laptops were closed,
The servers stood still,
In hopes that defensible collections
had followed the will.
Custodians nestled,
with phones tucked away,
While investigators dreamed
of a case-ready day.
When out in the logs,
there arose such a clatter,
An alert from the system.
This one could matter.
Away to the console
The team flew with care,
Assessing the sources,
the scope, and the where.
Cloud apps and mobile phones,
collaboration tools too,
Modern data sources expand
What investigations must be done?
With timelines aligned
and metadata tight,
Each artifact captured
the first time…right.
No shortcuts were taken,
No corners were shaved,
Because forensic integrityThis
is what evidence saves.
From remote endpoints
to enterprise scale,
Each collection stood ready
to tell its full tale.
And then, in a moment,
as clear as could be,
The truth told its story
through data, not plea.
As the year winds down
and new matters take shape,
Preparation remains
the strongest escape.
So here’s to clean collections,
repeatable and sound,
To workflows that scale
As new data is found.
From the investigations, early
to discovery’s last light,
Getting data right matters
every case, every byte.
From all of us focused
on precision and care,
Happy holidays to all
from Pinpoint Labs
Where we help you do
data collection right.
Whether supporting forensic investigations, defensible data collections, or eDiscovery workflows, preparation and accuracy remain constant, no matter the season.
As organizations head into a new year filled with evolving data sources and increasing scrutiny, getting collections right from the start makes all the difference.
