Fun With Electronic Redaction: Page 2 of 2

On-screen manual redaction provides for on-screen redaction. As with automatic redaction, it should protect against any unwanted intrusion into redacted content.

Defensible redaction enables tagging defensible reasons for the redaction (i.e. "Privileged"), and also defends against spoliation when using native applications. The software redacts copies of the source file to avoid modifying the original.

Preserving redaction marks should operate throughout the production process. It sounds like it should be obvious but it isn't - not all production platforms will retain redaction marks from during the review process. Make sure your software will.
