the deletion. overwritten.
Correct: B - Restore the server from the last available backup and preserve all restored
data.
Rationale:The immediate priority is to restore any available data to avoid further loss.
Restoring from backup preserves evidence and demonstrates good faith. Notifying opposing
counsel (A) may be necessary but is not the first step; issuing a revised hold (C) does not
recover lost data; forensic acquisition (D) is futile if data is overwritten.
Q2.
A company is facing a regulatory investigation and must preserve data across multiple
cloud platforms. Which of the following approaches best ensures that metadata and
dynamic data (e.g., social media feeds) are preserved in a forensically sound manner?
A. Use native format collection with hash B. Export data to PDF for a uniform,

C. Create a litigation hold that suspends all D. Rely on the cloud provider's default
deletion and modification of data in the backup and archiving features.

Correct: A - Use native format collection with hash values and collect a static snapshot of
each data source.

Rationale: Preserving metadata and dynamic data requires collecting in native format with
hash values to verify integrity. Static snapshots capture the content at a point in time. PDFs
(B) lose metadata; a litigation hold (C) alone does not ensure a forensic copy; cloud provider
backups (D) may not capture all relevant data or metadata.
Q3.
During e-discovery, the producing party uses technology-assisted review (TAR) with
continuous active learning. Opposing counsel challenges the methodology. Which of the
following is the most critical factor to demonstrate the reliability of the TAR process?
A. The use of a well-known TAR software B. The training set included at least 10,000
platform. documents.
C. The process was transparent, with a D. The review team was supervised by a
clear methodology and quality control certified e-discovery specialist.
measures.
Correct: C - The process was transparent, with a clear methodology and quality control
measures.
Rationale:Courts require transparency and a defensible process, not just the use of a specific
tool or sample size. A clear methodology, including seed sets, training, and QC, demonstrates
reliability. The software used (A) or the number of documents (B) are not dispositive;
supervision (D) is helpful but not the core factor.
Q4.
A cross-border litigation involves ESI stored in the EU. The GDPR restricts transfers of
personal data outside the EU. Which of the following is the most appropriate basis for
transferring ESI to the US for review?
A. Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) B. The litigation exception under GDPR
with supplemental measures, if applicable. Article 49(1)(e) is automatically available.
C. Obtain consent from each data subject D. Pseudonymize the data and transfer it
whose data is in the ESI. without any further safeguards.
Correct: A - Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) with supplemental measures, if
applicable.
Rationale:SCCs are a valid transfer mechanism under GDPR, provided that a data protection
impact assessment is conducted and supplementary measures are added if necessary. The
litigation exception (B) is narrow and not automatic; consent (C) is often impractical and may
be invalid due to imbalance of power; pseudonymization (D) still constitutes personal data
transfer and requires a legal basis.
