Computer Forensics

COMPUTER FORENSICS
Our EnCase certified consultants identify, collect and recover Electronically Stored Information (ESI) while ensuring its defensibility as evidence in a court of law.

Data identification and collection
The timeframes of litigations often span the tenure of key members of your IT staff, making the identification of potentially relevant data sources a challenge.  CDSs highly-trained forensics consultants have experience in data-mapping; they know where to look and have mastered the technology to identify potentially relevant data throughout an organization.

Our EnCase certified professionals filter and accurately capture data from most media types including PDAs, laptops, workstations, network servers, removable storage devices and legacy systems. We preserve the metadata and provide an authenticated chain-of-custody, based on MD5 hash algorithms, eliminating the potential for spoliation claims. You can be sure that what we deliver is what is on the original media.

Data recovery
Collecting data is only one step in the forensics process. Password protected, encrypted and deliberately deleted data can often hold the key to your case. Our in-house forensics specialists work with trusted partners to recover the most challenging data. Or, when appropriate, we can provide third-party validation of the inaccessibility of the data.
