Computer Forensic Services
List of Capabilities Our Process
Digital evidence is becoming more and more critical to all types of litigation cases. Whatever the category or type, civil or criminal, computer
technology is often involved. Today, lawyers, law enforcement professionals and other litigants must recognize the value of electronic evidence.
The evidence and "paper" trail found within storage media can make or break a case. First Advantage Data Recovery can help you secure that evidence.
First Advantage Data Recovery's skills in all types of media and software, allow us to expertly examine a large number of computer platforms to locate
and recover all the information you need. Our experience in computer forensics allows us to provide you with thorough, tightly controlled and fully
documented examinations of your computer media. Our forensic experts / engineers can offer expert witness testimony to verify electronic discovery
efforts and methods that will stand up in any court.
We have the tools needed to locate and recover evidence from E-mails, ledgers, databases and any other electronic data content.
We work only with imaged drives to preserve the original drive for evidence integrity and/or opposing counsel examination. We maintain strict transfer,
storage and chain of custody procedures that leave no room for error.
Determining whether data has been deleted or damaged can be just as crucial to a pending case as the actual data. Our computer forensic experts can
safely enter a system, network or data storage device, and depending upon the situation, search for specific data, phrases, files, numbers or keywords
to determine when data was accessed, changed or destroyed.
Using proprietary methods, we can often recover evidence that was either intentionally or unintentionally lost, damaged or deleted from severely
physically damaged media, files, re-formatted disk/tapes, re-initialized disks or damaged disks.
