Evidence we examine

Our certified forensic analysts work across a wide range of evidence

Computers and Storage Drives

Often analyzed to determine file origin and authenticity, and to recover deleted data.

Mobile Devices

Reveal search history, travel, and even health data. Our tools create an exact copy of that data for analysis and court presentation.

IoT and Cloud-Connected Devices

From fitness trackers to smart refrigerators, these devices reveal hidden trends during an investigation.

What our analysis reveals

The questions device data can answer

  1. Establishing Movements

    Application data and Wi-Fi network connections are two common ways to determine where someone has been. Analyzed over a period of time, they create a comprehensive view of commutes, habits, and more.

  2. Distracted Driving

    Often a lingering question in collision matters. Data can reveal which applications were open at the time of impact, when a message was sent or viewed, and even the lock status and orientation of the device.

  3. File Authentication

    In an ever-online world, photos, videos, and other files are frequently offered as evidence. Examinations can confirm when and where a file was created, and whether the version being offered is a true and accurate copy of the original.
