What is legal hold in eDiscovery?

The legal hold allows organizations to preserve critical data, such as files, emails, chats, and records, by overriding existing retention or deletion policies. When a legal hold is applied, the retention period is set to unlimited, ensuring the data remains securely stored with SysCloud until the hold is manually released. This feature is essential for legal, compliance, and investigative purposes, ensuring critical data is preserved and remains accessible when needed.
