Digital Forensic Investigations 

Done properly, digital forensic investigations save your business time and money. Devices provide a wealth of evidence sources that can be used to prove or disprove facts. 

The aim of digital forensics is to identify, collect, preserve, and analyse data in a way that preserves the integrity of the evidence collected. This is so that it can be presented in a legal process, whether that be a civil or criminal court hearing, tribunal or internal disciplinary procedure. 

Compliance and discretion

Conducting digital investigations in accordance with a number of internationally recognised standards and UK and international rules of evidence, we execute clearly defined investigation plans that withstand legal scrutiny. 

Working discreetly with your business to mitigate as much as possible against the business disruption and potential brand damage that a complex data investigation may present. 

We support you fully throughout any investigation. 

Expert Witness and Legal Support 

In legal proceedings, digital forensics plays a crucial role in uncovering case-critical evidence, supporting both prosecution and defence. Our expert witness services provide forensic analysis that is legally admissible, ensuring that digital evidence withstands rigorous scrutiny. We work closely with leading law firms to provide forensic expertise, legal forensic advice, and expert witness statements. 

From identifying crucial evidence to maintaining forensic integrity in litigation, our team of subject matter experts supports your legal needs.

Our range of Digital Forensic tools and services includes: 

Forensic analysis: 
A detailed examination of the incident and relevant forensic artefacts to establish the nature and extent of the breach. This includes the identification and analysis of malicious binaries and scripts, constructing a timeline of events, and comprehensive system, network, and user analysis. 

Root cause and impact assessment: 
A thorough investigation to determine the root cause of the incident and assess its impact. This helps understand the vulnerabilities exploited and the extent of the damage, which is crucial for future risk management and mitigation strategies. 

Business email compromise:

Data exfiltration investigation: 
In cases of unauthorised data transfer, we investigate to identify the pathways of data leakage, understand the motives behind it, and implement controls to safeguard sensitive information from future incidents. 

Mobile device forensics: 
We extract, analyse, and preserve data from mobile devices. This service includes recovering lost data, investigating malicious activities on mobile platforms, and providing evidence for legal and disciplinary actions.
