Digital Forensics Consulting — matters we are engaged for

An in-house team is capable but not independent
IT can copy data. What it cannot do is be a neutral witness to its own collection, which is the position the administrator ends up in when the matter is contested. Supervision from outside preserves both the evidence and the team.
A protocol has to be agreed before collection starts
Most disputes about forensic evidence are really disputes about method, argued after the fact. Setting the scope, tooling and validation in advance converts those arguments into a document both sides already signed.
A programme needs to survive staff turnover
Institutional knowledge of how collections are run tends to live with one person. Written procedure, tested against a real scenario, is what keeps a defensible process in place after that person leaves.
Existing work product needs a second look
A prior examination reached a conclusion counsel now needs to rely on, or attack. Re-examining the underlying image rather than the prior report is the only way to know which.
