Data Collections
DSi’s digital forensics experts are trained in the proper techniques and procedures to preserve the integrity of your data and provide a documented path of the evidence handled. We have performed hundreds of collections and analyses for criminal, civil and internal investigations.
Our dedicated, state-of-the-art forensics lab, connected to our secure data vault, has both a high level of security and the enterprise level hardware and software required to quickly and securely collect, process and analyze virtually any type of data, including: proprietary information, search history, browse history, metadata, password-protected files, corrupted files and more.
In addition to on-site data collection by our experienced forensic team, DSi offers remote collection technology. Remote collection allows us to send a small piece of hardware, pre-programmed by DSi’s technicians, to a location where it is used to quickly and accurately gather data in a forensically sound and accepted manner. It can also be programmed to filter and hash-verify as it collects.
