Computer Forensics

Are you subject to financial fraud? Is your company on the verge of collapse due to money laundering? Has someone established untraceable reservoirs of money pilfered from you? All the evidence you require for legal action against these perpetrators is in the form of deleted files on your computer but you just don’t know how to go about extracting it. This is why our panel of private investigators in the best choice when it comes to computer forensics. These are certified experts in this field and have years of experience in dealing with digital data recovery. Such individuals are rare in the field of private investigation, thus representing the level of their dedication to private investigation.

Computer forensics goes beyond data recovery. While data recovery might only involve recovering data from deleted files or damaged hardware, this field involves many other data recovery techniques such as accessing encrypted files, recovering attempts to remove or conceal important data, elucidating when evidence has been intentionally fabricated to fool authorities, as well as monitoring the activity logged onto the computer such as websites accessed and files downloaded during a specific time period. Also, if presented with evidence of alterations in certain documents before their printing, these can also be recovered from the files of these documents on the system hardware.

Once the data has been recovered, our specialized tracking system creates an audit trail. This classifies the recovered data in a chronological order, starting with the most recent activity, monitoring when, where and how the data was entered and used, leading up to the oldest pieces of information. This is the most crucial part of the investigation and also one on which legal proceedings depend as established audit trails are inconclusive proof of one’s activities on the computer hardware and can be provided as evidence in any court of law.

Establishment of audit trails is a lengthy, time-consuming business which may take considerable effort for its proper elucidation. Audit trails are commonly used to track how a computer is used which becomes an essential security feature for corporate businesses. Audit trails have now become a necessity when one presents evidence in court and can save your company from legal action as well. The use of audit trails in corporate businesses, and other places involving computer networks, is thus an important determinant in the security features of the computer networks. Our experts provide you with guidance on how to use audit trails as security and help you ensure that your system’s security is not compromised.

When it comes to remote attacks on a network, the audit trail becomes increasingly complex. Care must be taken by the private investigator to prevent false implications of evidence and to identify the real criminal as quickly as possible. This requires prompt action on part of the investigator as the time-frame for tracking down the culprit may be reduced to minutes at times.

Where the criminal is as clever as to place concealed devices on the hardware to corrupt evidence when attempts are made to extract it, great care must be taken to prevent such an event from happening. This is where our experts shine yet again as they never fail to follow the rigid protocols developed to conserve evidence and prevent such an occurrence from ever happening in the first place. Our private investigators are trained to make a copy of the evidence and to work on it for the duration of the evidence to prevent direct tampering of evidence so that it is presented to the authorities as proof of criminal fraud in its entirety. As always, we ensure confidentiality in our dealings with customers and never compromise the boundaries of your trust.
