Computer forensics

Tracing the digital footprint

Computer forensics helps fraud investigators uncover hidden facts to confirm or refute allegations of fraud. It involves identifying, collecting, analysing huge amounts of data in order to prevent, investigate and solve sophisticated cyber-attacks and network intrusions.

It helps minimise disruption, manage subsequent internal as well as regulatory investigations, and provides deterrence to information technology (IT ) systems and networks from being recompromised.Computer forensics helps the client identify historical artifacts to trace user and system activity.
