[Ernie the Attorney] QUOTE Oops! Honey, I forgot to redact the document! - giving your opponent a document with sensitive information exposed is not a good idea. That's why people use black markers. But what about electronic documents? Anyone ever hear of "meta-data"? Please, people. Let's be careful out there. If you are an attorney and don't know what I'm talking about (especially if you use Microsoft Word) read this. UNQUOTE [Ernie the Attorney]
In earlier posts I have shared how Word documents can contain all sorts of stuff you not want to share, and how unscrupulous people can send you what seems like an innocent document, but it really contains software that acts like a virus to do Industrial Espionage. That is a great link by Ernie to an article on www.law.com about electronic documents in general. It is not just Microsoft stuff you have to manage.
