Certified AI eDiscovery & Litigation Technology Specialist (CAIELTS) Certification Program by Tonex
The Certified AI eDiscovery & Litigation Technology Specialist (CAIELTS) Certification Program by Tonex is designed for professionals involved in litigation, investigations, digital evidence review, legal data analysis, and discovery strategy. This program helps participants understand how artificial intelligence can improve document review, relevance ranking, privilege detection, case assessment, litigation analytics, and defensible discovery workflows. Participants learn how AI-supported review can reduce review burden, improve consistency, and support better legal decision-making when used with proper oversight.
The program also addresses the cybersecurity impact of AI-enabled eDiscovery. Litigation data often includes confidential records, regulated information, attorney-client communications, trade secrets, and forensic evidence. Cybersecurity controls help protect discovery platforms, review databases, legal data transfers, and evidence repositories from unauthorized access, tampering, leakage, and compromise. Participants gain awareness of how secure workflows, access control, audit trails, and data governance support trustworthy AI use in litigation and investigations.
