  Computer Forensics and Recovery:

Make no mistake about this.  This is a very technical process and requires the services of an experienced and certified examiner, as this particular investigative service is unlike any other type of investigation.  This is a complex investigation that involves that any data that is stored on any hard drive of a computer be recovered properly.  This is not something that can simply be done with any software.  The truth of the matter is that many investigators advertise this service but they are not at all familiar with the proper techniques and oftentimes, they send the hard drive out in order to get the recovery done properly.  Others try to use software found on the market to try and recover the data and this does not always work.  What does happen more often than not is that the data is disturbed and because of this, this data can actually be unintentionally modified if not destroyed. The hard drive itself can actually become damaged as well, and this oftentimes makes the recovery process even more difficult.  This office and its examiners are certified in this type of recovery and have the certifications and training to handle these types of recovery assignments. 

Data such as deleted emails, web site addresses, chat room addresses and transcripts, photo images commonly known as jpeg images that appear on many sites, important composed documents and much more all qualify for recovery services.  Many of these files are commonly believed to have been totally deleted and removed from the computers hard drive whether by deletion or a system malfunction that causes the computer to become inoperable.  Contrary to the most common belief, it is quite often possible for these bits of information to be extracted and put back together, similar to that of a puzzle. 

Although this is a process that can be done, the answers will not be fully determined until after the data has been recovered and the findings are meticulously researched.  The process involved to investigate a computer can be exceptionally time intensive.  An average of seven hours is required before a basic assessment can be created.  This assessment will help establish if the data can be recovered and whether the computer itself does contain any valuable and significant information relative to the recovery and the case at hand. 

Our trained and certified investigative personnel are prepared to assist you with this complex type of recovery and investigation.  Whether it is a simple computer systems failure, suspecting that an employee might be giving away confidential information and trade secrets, or whether you suspect a spouse of using the computer for suspicious activity.  Whatever the reasons are, this process can be used to assist you in potentially recovering that necessary data. 

This office and its team of professional and experienced investigator’s have many options available to them. So give us a call or send us an email and discover exactly why we’re Connecticut’s Premier Investigative Service.
