  • DSARs in Practice: Managing Complex Requests with Technology and Oversight
    2026/04/13
    A practical look at handling high-risk DSARs using modern eDiscovery tools and structured review workflows.

    Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs) are becoming more complex, more frequent and in some cases, more strategic.

    In this episode of The Salient Edge, David Fisk is joined by Andrew Punter from Reveal to explore how organisations can respond effectively to modern DSAR challenges — particularly where requests are high-risk, multi-faceted, or potentially linked to litigation.

    Building on a previous discussion around DSAR strategy, this conversation focuses on the practical application of technology within the process. From early case assessment and data scoping through to review, redaction and disclosure, the episode examines how platforms like Reveal can support structured, defensible responses.

    The discussion also addresses the growing reality of “weaponised” DSARs—requests that extend beyond privacy rights and into legal or commercial strategy. In these scenarios, coordination between legal, HR and privacy teams becomes critical, as does having the right investigative and eDiscovery capability in place.

    While technology plays an important role, David and Andrew emphasise that DSAR processing still requires careful human oversight—particularly when dealing with nuance, privilege, third-party data and regulatory risk. The episode explores how organisations can strike the right balance between efficiency and control, using tools such as advanced search, analytics, machine learning and visualisation to support decision-making without over-reliance on automation.

    Key topics covered include:
    - Managing complex and high-risk DSARs
    - Understanding and responding to “weaponised” requests
    - The role of eDiscovery platforms in DSAR workflows
    - Structuring review processes and escalation paths
    - Redaction strategies and disclosure considerations
    - The importance of proportionality and defensible decision-making

    This episode is essential listening for corporate investigators, legal teams, compliance professionals, and anyone responsible for managing DSARs in a regulated environment. Visit our website

  • The Evolution of Corporate Investigations: Independence, Standards, and the Human Role in an AI World
    2026/02/26
    Independence, accountability, and human oversight in a technology-driven era.

    What do modern corporate investigations really look like - beyond the headlines and beyond the technology?

    In this episode of The Salient Edge, host David Fisk speaks with Ash Sharma, seasoned corporate investigator and Chief Strategy Officer of the Association of Corporate Investigators (ACI), about the evolution of corporate investigations over the past 25 years - and the structural, regulatory, and technological forces reshaping the profession today.

    From his early career at the Crown Prosecution Service and Serious Fraud Office to leading complex global investigations across banking, Ash shares firsthand insight into how corporate investigations differ fundamentally from law enforcement. Today's investigators must navigate international fraud, bribery and corruption, sanctions violations, supply chain fraud, workplace misconduct, regulatory exposure and cross-border financial crime - all within increasingly complex corporate structures.

    A core theme of the discussion is investigator independence. Ash explains why investigations should not sit under legal or HR functions, how reporting structures influence outcomes and why true independence - ideally reporting directly to the audit committee or board - is critical to defensibility, transparency, and accountability.

    Current trends covered include:
    - The rise in supply chain fraud, vendor fraud, and third party risk
    - Increasing workplace misconduct investigations (bullying, harassment, retaliation)
    - Cross-border regulatory enforcement under legislation such as the UK Bribery Act and FCPA
    - The growing complexity of pharmaceutical, sanctions, and global trade investigations
    - The practical realities of AI in investigations - including generative AI, automation, and the risk of over-reliance

    While AI and technology are improving efficiency in transaction monitoring, eDiscovery, and case triage, Ash makes a compelling case for maintaining the human-in-the-loop. Investigations require judgement, contextual understanding, and the ability to challenge outputs - qualities that cannot be automated.

    This episode is essential listening for corporate investigators, compliance leaders, legal teams, forensic accountants, audit committees, and governance professionals seeking to strengthen investigative independence, reduce regulatory risk, and build defensible internal investigation frameworks.

    Corporate investigations are becoming more sophisticated - but independence, professional standards, and human judgement remain non-negotiable. Visit our website

  • Beyond eDiscovery: How OSINT Transforms Investigations and Due Dilligence
    2026/01/29
    Inside Deep Dive's Knowledge Engine for Open Source Intelligence, EDD, and Risk Insight.

    Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) has become a powerful parallel capability to traditional eDiscovery — unlocking insight far beyond corporate systems and internal data. In this episode of The Salient Edge, host David Fisk is joined by Dave Pope, COO of Deep Dive, to explore how OSINT is reshaping investigations, enhanced due diligence (EDD), and risk-based decision-making.

    Drawing on more than 25 years of experience in fraud investigation, identity verification, and intelligence platforms, Dave explains why traditional search engines fall short for investigators — and how Deep Dive’s “knowledge engine” approach transforms vast volumes of publicly available information into structured, defensible intelligence.

    The conversation unpacks how Deep Dive automates the most time-consuming aspects of OSINT research while keeping humans firmly in the loop. From multi-language global searches and entity resolution to AI-driven analysis, source reliability scoring, and adversarial AI quality controls, this episode provides a practical look at how modern investigations can move from manual research to intelligence-led analysis.

    Key topics include:
    • What OSINT really is — and why it matters in investigations and eDiscovery
    • The difference between a search engine and a knowledge engine
    • How AI accelerates investigations without introducing bias or hallucination
    • Person-centric vs entity-centric investigations (and what’s coming next)
    • Using OSINT to support EDD, KYC, fraud investigations, onboarding and reputational risk decisions
    • Why OSINT enables investigators to spend less time researching and more time analysing

    Rather than replacing investigators, modern OSINT platforms are designed to reduce the time spent on manual research and data gathering, allowing teams to focus on analysis, judgment, and decision-making.

    By automating source discovery, data aggregation, and initial structuring of open-source information, OSINT enables investigations and due diligence exercises to be conducted more efficiently, consistently, and at greater scale — particularly in complex, multi-jurisdictional matters.

    The value lies not in speed alone, but in repeatability, coverage, and confidence. Investigators gain a broader, more structured view of risk while maintaining human oversight and defensibility throughout the process.

    Key takeaway: OSINT enhances investigative workflows by streamlining research and improving visibility, enabling teams to deliver clearer insight within tighter timeframes — without sacrificing quality or control. Visit our website
