COMPUTER FORENSIC SERVICES FOR LAW FIRMS

Computer Forensics differs from data recovery, which is, recovery of data after an event affecting the physical data, such as a hard drive crash. Computer forensics goes much further. Computer forensics is a complete computer examination with analysis as the ultimate goal.

Computer Forensics also differs from Electronic Discovery, as artifacts are usually obtained from computer media that is requested during discovery or obtained through a court order or  warrant.  Computer Forensic Analysis is the process of finding evidence that is not readily available and preserving that evidence for admissibility in court.

This means not only recovering deleted files (documents, graphics, etc.), but also searching the slack and unallocated space on the hard drive—places where a plethora of evidence regularly resides.

It is tracing artifacts—those tidbits of data left behind by the operating system—for clues of what the computer has been used for, and, more importantly, knowing how to find the artifacts, and evaluating the value of information.

Forensic exams allow the processing of hidden files—files that are not visible or accessible to the user—that contain past usage information. It is reconstructing and analyzing the date codes for each file—determining when each file was created, last modified, last accessed and when deleted.

Computer forensics is being able to run a string-search for e-mail, when no e-mail client is obvious. An analysis will reveal Internet usage, recover data, and accomplish a full analysis even after the computer has been defragged and/or formatted. It is using industry-standard methodology, and supplying you with a concise written report.
