Exterro
Exterro offers a broad, integrated platform designed to manage legal GRC challenges. Unlike point solutions, it aims to unify workflows across eDiscovery (from legal hold through production), data privacy management (like data mapping and handling Data Subject Access Requests - DSARs), and digital forensics (leveraging its well-known FTK - Forensic Toolkit - product line). Exterro incorporates AI and machine learning throughout the platform to automate tasks, identify sensitive data (like PII), analyze large datasets, and orchestrate complex workflows across legal, IT, and compliance teams.
