Cloud storage expert witness candidates typically have extensive experience and expertise in computer science, software, cloud computing, networking, or computer security. With a concern by some experts on privacy, cyber security and computer forensics expertise is also in demand. In a high-profile case, or litigation involving a significant financial stake, a law firm may require a technical expert with prior expert testimony experience. Cloud storage, cloud services, and cloud computing are emerging technology areas with ongoing research and a highly competitive landscape, and cloud-related patent lawsuits are expected to rise. Representative cloud storage matters that have required expert witness services involve legal issues pertaining to:
• cloud storage patent infringement, including Inter partes reviews
• computer forensics, for example, disputes involving digital evidence
• trade secret data stored in the cloud
