The record

Purpose: Legal Hold preserves and collects user backup data for legal matters as part of eDiscovery.
Preservation policies: A preservation policy defines which files to preserve and how long to keep them, and a matter applies one policy to a group of users.
Continuous protection: CrashPlan automatically collects regular updates to files on custodians’ devices.
Custodian experience: Custodians are not notified of a hold and the legal hold backup set does not appear in the CrashPlan app.
Metadata: CrashPlan says it preserves file timestamps, permissions, and directory paths for discovery.
eDiscovery integration: CrashPlan for Endpoint provides an open API and integration documentation for accessing preserved data from an existing eDiscovery platform.
Collection: Collecting preserved files requires an active hold and a target device with the CrashPlan app installed and active.
Collection limit: Files cannot be collected through the console for custodians whose archives use an Archive key password or Custom key, though their data is still preserved.
Retention on release: Releasing a custodian or closing a matter begins permanent deletion of the data preserved by that hold.
Subscription use: Custodians remain active users and continue to consume a user subscription while their matter is open.
Supported desktop systems: The CrashPlan app supports Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems.
Security certifications: CrashPlan says it is ISO 27001 certified and conducts annual SOC 2 Type 2 attestations on its product and infrastructure.
