David Matthews has worked in the information
technology (IT) field since 1992. He began working for the City of
Seattle as the technology manager for the Legislative Department
(City Council) in 1998. In early 2005, he was selected to be the
first Deputy CISO for the city. In his work for the city, he
developed and created an incident response plan that is compliant
with the National Incident Management System (NIMS)/Incident
Command System (ICS); updated and extensively rewrote the city’s
information security policy; and created and taught training
courses on information security and forensics. He created an IT
primer for the city’s law department as part of his collaboration
with them on e-discovery issues.
In 2012, he was recruited by Expedia, Inc. to develop and lead
their global cyber incident response team. He created and exercised
a plan that integrated with their network response and disaster
recovery plans and led a team located both in the United States and
India. He retired in 2014 and is now doing consultant work mostly
with local governments and critical infrastructure to enhance their
cyber response and resiliency capabilities.
"Matthews has approached e-discovery from a fresh, new
perspective—one that is understandable to the layperson as well as
the technologist. ... A must-read for anyone in the information
technology and legal professions, the book provides invaluable
information to be proactive or reactive in responding to requests
of electronically stored information. ... This book goes a long way
in removing the intimidation factor between IT, the corporate legal
department, and outside counsel. This book should be required
reading for anyone in a computer science, information technology,
or law-related program, and is now part of the Digital Forensics
and the Law course I instruct. If you want to get up to speed on
e-discovery and actually understand what you read, you’ll buy this
book."

Forensic Examiner; and Educator
