Forensic IT

Knowing where to look to unearth digital evidence requires both technical expertise and a strong appreciation of legal processes. Our Forensic IT specialists possess the qualifications, training and experience to meet legal expectations and challenges as to the credibility of our evidence. This is backed up by experience gained in many of the most complex and high-profile cases in this field.

As the volume and frequency of electronic communications continues to multiply, possession of cost-effective e-discovery solutions is paramount to the delivery of services to our clients, which is why we have launched our related online evidence review service.

In all of our work we understand that evidence production may occur many months or years in the future. We combine detailed record keeping with thorough and consistent evidence processing practices. In undertaking a Forensic IT engagement we follow the best practice principles and standards of electronic evidence handling as prescribed by the rules of evidence and admissibility.

The potential application of these skills is vast, and in recent times has included:

  • Expert analysis and evidence in intellectual property and piracy cases
  • Investigations into the misuse of intellectual property
  • Acquisition and examination of electronic evidence in workplace disputes relating to unfair dismissal, discrimination and privacy
  • Employee and executive fraud investigations
  • Investigation into Identity theft
  • Investigation of extortions where demands are transmitted electronically
  • Investigation into industrial espionage
  • Investigations into website defacement and denial of service attacks
  • Assistance in the execution of Anton Pillar orders
  • Computer forensic services such as data acquisitions, in the context of disputes and investigations
  • Data acquisitions to secure books and records in formal insolvency appointments
