MELVILLE, N.Y., Aug. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- With
document-heavy workloads often posing potential security risks and
impeding legal personnel with manual tasks, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging
solutions, aims to help more securely automate content management
for the industry at ILTACON 2018 (Booths #601, 603). Canon keeps
security top of mind in exhibiting its latest offerings from
August 19 to August 23 at the Gaylord
Conference Center, in National Harbor, Maryland.
"Legal firms work with an abundance of documents, and as
such, it can be overwhelming for them to reimagine their document
workflow processes," says Randy
Dazo, group director, Office Document Technology, Keypoint
Intelligence. "Incorporating intelligent solutions that can help
these firms better automate procedures and help them protect
sensitive business information in the process is crucial as we
advance into the future of work."
Canon offerings on display aim to help legal professionals
address three core challenges: information governance to help with
content security, workflow intelligence, and the ability to respond
to complex discovery matters. These intelligent solutions for the
future of work include Nuance content connectors for iManage**, the
uniFLOW system for printing, scanning and device management, Box
and mxHero cloud solutions for content and email management, as
well as AI-based productivity software and eDiscovery tools,
solutions, and services.
Information Governance to Help with Content Security
Content capture and routing continues to challenge law firms.
This behavior can ultimately impact productivity and calls for
solutions that can help firms better automate their workflows.
Nuance content connectors for iManage allow for integrated content
connection that is firm-controlled.
The uniFLOW platform can help firms streamline printing,
scanning, and device management workflow while using security
features. Its Secure Print function affords law professionals the
flexibility to send sensitive documents to compatible network
printers from desktop and compatible mobile devices, and then print
from virtually anywhere with authentication. Intelligent scan
technologies, like its dictionary-based optical character
recognition (OCR), combined with its powerful workflow engine allow
for easy integration into legal content management systems, such as
iManage and Opentext**. Further, it includes a reporting system
that provides law firms the ability to track and analyze printing,
copying, faxing, and scanning usage to help users control and
identify ways to help reduce costs.
Workflow Intelligence
The application of advanced artificial intelligence (AI)
technologies in the identification and classification of
case-related materials can help automate the now often manual
processes of associating them with specific clients and matter
numbers. The AI-powered Canon Smart Document Assistant technology,
developed by Canon Information & Imaging Solutions (CIIS), a
subsidiary of Canon U.S.A.,
intelligently automates the process of making these contextual
associations and will be available for previewing during the show;
this is designed to allow law practices to access and respond to
critical information faster and with greater accuracy. The tool
employs machine learning to continuously improve its own accuracy
as users accept or correct predicted associations. The software can
even learn who should know about a specific document's arrival and
notify the appropriate personnel.
Further, Canon's strategic partnerships with Box, a cloud
content management platform, and mxHero, a cloud service for
intelligent e-mail management, offer law practices the benefit of
automating business rules through content security and governance
features to help improve the management of unstructured data and
decrease network clogging and storage costs.***
Solving Complex Discovery Matters
Firms can benefit from services that can help coordinate
content, improve accessibility and streamline legal review
timelines. Canon Business Process Services (CBPS), a subsidiary of
Canon U.S.A., offers a skilled,
dedicated team of discovery professionals with a proven track
record in solving complex discovery matters. Canon Discovery
Services, a division of CBPS, helps law firms and corporate legal
departments develop practical, defensible eDiscovery response
plans. Services range from ESI processing, culling and analysis,
document review, hosting and production to implementing information
governance, and readiness response programs.
