WHY COMPUTER FORENSICS?

The vast majority of documents now exist in electronic form. No investigation involving the review of documents, either in a criminal or corporate setting, is complete without including properly handled computer evidence. Computer forensics ensures the preservation and authentication of computer data, which is fragile by its nature and can be easily altered, erased, or subject to claims of tampering without proper handling. Additionally, computer forensics greatly facilitates the recovery and analysis of deleted files and many other forms of compelling information normally invisible to the user.
