// About This Service
Evidence That Holds Up under Scrutiny
Digital forensics is about more than finding out what happened. It is about proving it, in a way that satisfies regulators, insurers, courts or your own board. Our investigators follow strict evidence-handling procedures from the moment they touch a device, so the chain of custody is never in question.
We work to the ACPO Good Practice Guide for Digital Evidence and ISO/IEC 27037, the standards UK courts and the ICO expect to see behind a defensible investigation.
- A Clear, Evidenced Account of What Happened and When
- Evidence Collected and Stored to Standards Accepted in Court

- Independent Findings You Can Present with Confidence
