Let us take care of the evidence handling process

Forensic ACQUISITION
 

Transferring data data from a source device to a destination device with exactitude.

​

This involves the use of write-blocking equipment and high-integrity storage. 

​

The result is either a forensic copy (called an "image") in a digital format or a duplicated physical disk.

A report with a "fingerprint" is provided for integrity verification.

Let us take care of the evidence handling process

​

Digital evidence requires the highest care to maintain the required availability and integrity to support your investigations.

This is why we will apply the forensic methodology to your devices and data, including a proper chain of custody (documentation and paper trail).

​

There are many ways of exchanging the evidence material between yourselves and us, depending on type, fragility and sensitivity:

  • You can get your physical devices items delivered to our lab via a trusted courier with signature;

  • You can upload your evidence data to us via a secure data exchange platform;

  • We can access and secure the evidence within your environment remotely;

  • We can dispatch a forensic examiner to your premises to take charge of the evidence.

​

Get in touch with us to determine the appropriate means depending on the situation.
