Device Forensics Services
Expert analysis of computers, mobile devices, and specialized systems to recover critical digital evidence.
Digital Device Investigations
Digital devices contain vast amounts of information about their users. Computers, smartphones, and tablets store countless data points. These include files, messages, photos, and usage patterns. Our device forensics team extracts and analyzes this valuable evidence.
We handle devices of all types and operating systems. This includes Windows, Mac, and Linux computers. It extends to iOS and Android mobile devices. Even specialized systems like gaming consoles fall within our expertise. Most importantly, we preserve device integrity during examination.
Our approach begins with proper evidence handling. First, we document the device condition upon receipt. Then, we create forensic images without altering original data. After that, we analyze these images using specialized tools. Finally, we recover hidden, deleted, and protected information.
