Computer Forensics Consulting

A deceitful employee tarnishes his employer's reputation by viewing child pornography at work; a lawsuit is brought against an employer as a result of sexually explicit or threatening emails; outright theft of equipment by a dishonest employee:  A computer can be a powerful tool to an unscrupulous employee. Anyone with knowledge of computers can successfuly shield their activities from the average user but cannot evade a trained computer forensic examiner.

Computer forensics consulting is the process of applying scientific methods to digital media in order to determine whether or not a crime has been committed. A computer forensics examiner examines data storage devices to locate potential incriminating evidence then preserves, analyzes, and presents the findings in accordance with legally admissible standards of evidence.

Beyond the technical knowledge required, a computer forensics consulting team must possess an intricate understanding of criminal behavioral sciences. If the computer forensics examiner can't get inside the mind of the criminal, the technical ability to locate compromised or illicit data is irrelevant. 

If you suspect computer-based acts of malice are occurring at your business, a consultation with a computer forensics examiner will aid in exposing the crime. A computer forensics examiner can access information that is untraceable by normal means. Additionally, to avoid a possible lawsuit associated with termination of the offending employee, it is important to have the expert testimony of a computer forensics examiner from a reputable computer forensics consulting team. 

Computer forensics consulting experts like those at the Academy Group have a specialized process of conducting investigations so that the testimony of the computer forensics examiner stands up in court and leaves no room for uncertainty.
