Most corporations utilize an internal IT staff to handle daily communications; however your staff is likely NOT trained in the complex requirements of a potential legal investigation requiring computer forensics. Mistakes that could be avoided may throw potentially damaging evidence into subjectivity by the legal system if handled incorrectly.

A hybrid approach to an incident is the best approach. By combining internal IT staff for data collection and using an external forensic specialist for analysis, documentation, and verification, you have the best chance to ensure legal acceptance.

After a forensics team has resolved an incident, it is important to evaluate the process so future incidents can be improved. Xyphr’s forensic team has the background knowledge and communication skills to help strengthen your company’s infrastructure and ensure data integrity during investigations.

Forensics has become an integral part to ensure compliance with the top regulations affecting an organization: SOC, SB1386, GLBA, and HIPPA.
