Accidental damage, criminal activity and ignorance can all lead to a situation where you may need to investigate incidents, malicious activity or theft of information.

Orthus can provide expert, Court approved, High Tech Investigators to carry out forensic investigation, including firewall forensics, network forensics, database forensics and mobile device forensics, and provide support in:

• recovering data in the event of a hardware or software failure.
• legal cases where computer forensics are required to analyse computer systems belonging to defendants or litigants.
• analysing a computer system following a breach, to determine the nature of the attack and what the attacker did.
• gathering evidence against an employee suspected of malicious activity.

Orthus can prepare, collect, examine, analyse and report on data. All our forensic investigators are properly trained and follow strict guidelines of:

• ensuring that the evidence has been accurately collected and that there is a clear chain of custody from the scene of the crime to the investigator, and ultimately to court.taking no action that changes data held on a computer or storage media which may subsequently be relied upon.
• where it is necessary to access original data, the investigator is competent to do so and able to give evidence explaining the relevance and the implications of their actions.
• creating and preserving an audit trail or other record of all processes applied to computer based electronic evidence. Allowing an independent third party to examine those processes and achieve the same result.
• the Orthus investigator in charge is responsible for ensuring that the law and these principles are adhered to.
