Technology, Telecom & Software

We are the named, court-tested digital forensics experts that technology, telecom, and software companies and their counsel call when source-code theft, IP misappropriation, or an investigation turns on what the evidence shows.

How we serve Technology, Telecom & Software

Technology companies live or die on proprietary source code, architecture, and the trust their customers place in their data — and their hardest matters land where the engineering and the law are inseparable. We work these matters as digital forensic examiners first: reconstructing how source code, repositories, and credentials were accessed and copied; performing structured side-by-side code comparison that distinguishes unauthorized copying from independent development; mapping asserted patent claims to specific lines of accused RTL; and tracing misappropriated funds and digital assets on-chain in account-takeover and fraud schemes. We also run the privileged internal investigations that confirm insider involvement before any employee action or law-enforcement referral. Where this sector's matters involve a breach or privacy exposure, we work the forensic and investigative dimension — root-cause analysis of the intrusion, what was actually exfiltrated, and the security posture on the record — rather than crisis response. Our clients are general counsel, compliance and security leaders, and the litigators, white-collar defense teams, and arbitration counsel who rely on a forensic record that will hold up.

What sets the work apart is who does it and whether it survives scrutiny. The same forensic technologists who image the repositories, examine the access logs, and test the accused devices are named, testifying experts, court-appointed special masters, and neutrals who later explain those findings to a regulator, a board, an arbitrator, or a jury — and defend them under Daubert and cross-examination. Our principals have walked juries through chip-design source code line by line, had their methodology admitted while opposing opinions were struck as unreliable, and sat as special masters resolving petabyte-scale ESI disputes through reasoned written decisions. That forensic discipline — documented chain of custody, reproducible methodology, and conclusions translated into plain terms — not crisis response, is the core of what we bring to this sector.

Challenges we handle

  • Source-code theft and trade-secret forensics

    When a competitor's product appears to incorporate copied source code, we reconstruct the access-and-exfiltration trail across repositories, access logs, commit histories, and credentials, then perform structured side-by-side code comparison that distinguishes copying from independent development. Our expert reports and testimony have withstood cross-examination in high-stakes, nine-figure arbitration.

  • Patent and source-code expert testimony

    For infringement disputes that turn on dense technical questions, our testifying experts conduct independent source-code review in a secured environment, map each asserted claim element to specific lines of accused RTL or code, and translate the result into demonstratives a lay jury can follow — methodology documented to survive Daubert and cross-examination.

  • Insider misconduct and internal investigations

    When SIM-swap, account-takeover, or other schemes raise the possibility of insider complicity, we run covert, privileged digital-forensic investigations — system access logs, communications, and financial records obtained through legal process — to establish the nexus between employees and an external network before any termination or referral.

  • Asset tracing and fraud investigations

    For account-takeover and payment-fraud matters, we combine carrier and platform forensics with digital-banking transaction analysis and on-chain cryptocurrency tracing to map the full fraud network and follow stolen funds, assembling evidentiary packages that support both civil recovery and federal prosecution.

  • Expert testimony and special-master appointments

    Our principals are retained as testifying experts and appointed by courts as special masters, neutrals, and mediators — surviving Daubert in data-security class actions, and setting the ESI protocols and resolving the privilege, search-term, and TAR disputes that stall petabyte-scale discovery in landmark privacy litigation.

  • Forensic investigation of intrusions and data exposure

    When an API misconfiguration or intrusion exposes customer data, we lead the forensic side — root-cause analysis, tenant-by-tenant scoping of exactly what was accessible and whether external access occurred, and an assessment of the security posture — producing a defensible record for regulators, counsel, and any litigation that follows.
