Athena Forensics have Considerable Experience in Working with Regional and National Government Agencies where Digital Evidence requires Analysis.
We have worked on a number of cases in the public sector including education authorities, Trading Standards, the Environment Agency, County Councils as well as other public bodies and we can attend a site after normal office hours to conduct the preliminary stages of a computer forensic investigation.
If required we can carry out on-site work which can be covert if necessary and be carried out at short notice.
What Would a Computer or Mobile Phone Investigation Normally Involve?
Our experts take an ‘image’ of the data required leaving the original media in situ, causing little or no disruption to the business and produce their findings in a clear and concise report that can be used to assist in any resulting disciplinary or tribunal proceedings.
The volatile nature of digital evidence means that specialist equipment and skills are requirement to ensure that all potential evidence is captured and the integrity of the evidence is maintained.
Athena Forensics’ experts have carried out over 1000 computer forensic investigations, all of our experts are fully compliant with the National Police Chiefs’ Council Good Practice Guide for Computer Based Evidence and use tried and tested methodologies.
