DIGITAL FORENSIC INVESTIGATION

While digitisation has allowed for an unprecedented boom in productivity, the very nature of opening an organisation to the internet, as well as working remotely, exposes it to many vulnerabilities.

Any organisation is unfortunately quite susceptible to breaches of cyber security, across a wide range of weak spots

AGI’s digital forensic investigation services probe for the following issues:

  • Email phishing — defrauding an organisation by pretending to be a legitimate institution
  • Ransomware — holding an organisation to ransom by demanding a fee to get your system back to working order
  • Intellectual property (IP) theft
  • Intentional leaking of sensitive data by staff or contractors through any digital channel, e.g. email, instant messenger
  • Inappropriate staff use of internet
  • Leaks of sensitive or damaging information over social media
  • Accidental data loss through human error
  • Accidental data loss through fire, flood, etc.

DIGITAL FORENSIC INVESTIGATION

Time is of the essence when it comes to any digital violation, so AGI’s cyber forensic investigation services will make an urgent and thorough investigation of any digital breach as soon as humanly possible. The goal is to find the root source of the breach, recover any lost data, and create systems to prevent further attacks on your data and wider systems.

As one could imagine, there is often an enormous amount of data to analyse, so all findings are filtered and compiled into a succinct but complete eDisclosure report for review for any ensuing legal action.

The main goals of digital forensic investigations are to discover the source of computer-related illicit activity (e.g. data breaches, ransomware, etc.), and then taking steps to ensure that system or network is not vulnerable to future attacks.

Given that data is now the world’s foremost commodity, digital forensics is expected to be a growing sector with increasing demand for highly skilled investigators.
