Inside Exterro: Shashi Angadi, Chief Technology Officer

At its core, Exterro’s software helps organizations manage data in relation to critical obligations—whether for litigation, privacy compliance, or internal investigations. As Shashi Angadi, Chief Technology Officer at Exterro, explains, the goal is to help legal teams handle complex e-discovery processes efficiently, meet tight deadlines, and reduce costs. In the realm of privacy, the focus shifts to ensuring that customer data is protected and handled responsibly.

However, the impact of Exterro’s work goes far beyond operational efficiency. Angadi emphasizes that the company’s technology plays a meaningful role in real-world outcomes. In digital forensics, for example, Exterro’s tools support law enforcement agencies in solving complex criminal cases—helping bring perpetrators to justice.

He highlights a powerful example where forensic technology contributed to rescuing victims of human trafficking, demonstrating how these solutions can directly affect lives.

Ultimately, Exterro’s mission extends beyond software—it’s about enabling organizations to work smarter, protect sensitive data, and, in some cases, make a tangible difference in the world by supporting justice and safety.
