Quick response is critical: nothing is more important than in-person contact, especially when cyber investigations require a qualified first responder to a computer security incident.
The Digital Forensic Group’s incident response computer forensic team can be at your location in the New York metropolitan area quickly (under an hour in most cases).
It is essential to collect volatile information (information that is lost after a period of time or when computer is turned off), to perform data recovery forensics and to establish proper chain-of-custody as soon as possible. Attention to detail at this stage can set the tone for the strength of any evidence to be used later. If the investigation of the computer security incident finds that it is necessary to pursue the matter further, the legal system and judges in particular look favorably on organizations that bring in third-party computer forensic specialists from the outset.
