Our
extensive experience
Our
work in computer forensic consulting and expert witness services
includes participation in civil and criminal cases.
We assist in Anton Piller orders, a form of civil search warrant.
We work with legal teams prior to carrying out the orders to
determine the type of computer program and data files pertinent to
the order, the distinctive identifying characteristics of these
computer files and the most likely locations they might be found.
During execution of the orders, we search for and locate the
sought-after computer files and obtain copies for the legal team.
We analyze a wide variety of computer data files such as e-mail,
instant message logs and word processing documents to determine if
they appear to be genuine or fabricated. We examine computer data
files thought to be deleted, but we often recover the apparent
deletions using specialized tools.
We analyze accounting databases to locate suspicious
transactions. We review related business financial data such as
customer databases and price lists for evidence of their
unauthorized duplication and use. We investigate the data
trails of e-commerce systems, including Web servers, tracking usage
and analyzing logs. We review
and analyze the operations of computer applications software.
