Incident
Response
Partnering
with your in-house incident response team, expert technical assistance provides
the added assurance that decisions are supported by the best available information.
Of particular concern is the determination of whether an incident is of
human cause, whether it is intentional, and whether it violates applicable
law. Evidence preservation is critical in Incident Response if any subsequent
action is to be taken, whether civil, criminal, regulatory or nternal disciplinary
actions including employee dismissal. We bring the skill and expertise to
diagnose, analyze, collect and preserve applicable evidence. Although we
do not provide legal advice, we bring the legal professional knowledge to
support your in-house or external legal counsel in making the correct business
decisions, as well as external resources we can share as needed.
Forensic
Analysis
Forensic
analysis is the detailed examination, identification, determination and
collection of evidence. Forensic analysis is entirely based upon fact
and takes advantage of the fact that with sophisticated tools and techniques,
information can often be recovered, even though the information is thought
to have been lost or destroyed. Once suspicion of wrongdoing exists, it
becomes necessary to determine whether or not an incident has occured.
In the modern electronic age, intruders attempt to erase their tracks.
Often, they do not posess the technical skill or may not have adequate
systems access to obliterate every electronic fingerprint. We analyze
the available data and produce an unbiased, accurate report using scientifically
sound and court-upheld methods and tools. We assure forensic sterility
and maintain chain of custody for all potential evidence processed.
Forensic
analysis is not a quick service; it is usually a lengthy process and should
be undertaken when it can yield a value that exceeds its cost. We provide
assistance in helping you make this business decision, as well as in the
collection and processing of evidence. The choice to report, prosecute,
and or disclose investigative information is solely yours, except where
law explicitly requires otherwise*.
