Nearly every company or organisation uses computers as part of their everyday functions; from communicating via emails, running payroll and managing stock levels. Likewise, every user of these computers within the company generates a digital footprint regarding their activity; such as emails sent/received, websites visited, documents created etc. plus identifiers such as the date, time and location for this activity.
More recently, we have assisted commercial organisations with computer forensics to their benefit in a variety of cases such as:
- Intellectual Property theft
- Industrial espionage
- Employment disputes
- Fraud investigations
- Forgeries
- Bankruptcy investigations
- Inappropriate email and internet use in the work place
In recent years, there has been a massive rise in computer and Internet-related crime. CEOs, Directors, HR Managers, legal counsels are often not aware of the scope of data and information available on computer systems or the resources that we can provide to capture this information.
Computer Forensics can recover various data relating to the activity of the user, including:
- Internet surfing history
- Document backup files
- E-mail headers and instant messaging logs
- Registry logs
- Recover lost or deleted data
- Analyse this data to reconstruct what occurred
- Produce a comprehensive report for use by in mediation or in Court
