ArcherHall Success Story
Challenge: A company suspected two former employees of misappropriating intellectual property (IP) and proprietary information when they left to work for a competitor. Wanting to build a case against IP theft, the company hired ArcherHall to help find concrete proof.
Solution: Upon analyzing USBs, personal and business email addresses, and laptops, ArcherHall discovered that the suspects used anti-forensics tactics to hide their attempt to transfer files via drive-wiping software. To substantiate this, the digital forensics company expanded its search and used forensic software to restore points and shadow copies to collect evidence of data tampering.
Results: Despite the suspects’ attempts to conceal their activities, ArcherHall circumnavigated their anti-forensic strategies and collected undeniable evidence of IP theft. This allowed the client to further investigate the suspects’ personal devices, mitigate losses, and recover stolen IP.

Elite Digital Forensics Success Story
Challenge: A customer was accused of robbing a convenience store due to his resemblance to the masked robber. Needing to prove his innocence, the customer’s defense team commissioned Elite Digital Forensics’ expertise.
Solution: Elite Digital Forensics leveraged cell tower and GPS data, Wi-Fi logs, and social media and messaging apps to build a case against the convenience store’s prosecution case, that was initially based on CCTV and witness testimony. GPS and cell tower data proved the customer was at his friend’s house at the time of the robbery, 25 miles away. Wi-Fi logs further backed this claim, showing that the client was connected to the friend’s Wi-Fi at the time of the theft.
Results: With the accuracy of location data and timestamps of social media, the customer had irrefutable evidence of his innocence, leading to the charges being dropped.

Solution: Using the XRY software, the client was able to conduct selective data extractions and recover data from specified apps on the victims’ and witnesses’ phones while protecting their data privacy rights. The solution uncovered that the suspect had multiple Google accounts storing illicit content, further strengthening the county’s case.
Results: Grounding the case on the evidence gathered from the witnesses and victims’ devices, the suspect pled guilty to the child exploitation charges. The US County Sheriff’s Office highlighted MSAB’s XRY impact in paving the way for future investigations, especially ones of a sensitive nature, as it provided a balance between privacy and public protection.

Solution: Global Digital Forensics analyzed the bank’s digital and paper records, the suspected employees’ laptops and computers, and email accounts. It also coordinated with the bank’s IT department to review computer systems and corroborate evidence. The digital forensics company uncovered undeniable evidence that select bank employees were altering information and approving loans and expenses against the bank’s policies, thus violating federal and industry regulations.
Results: Using the evidence from Global Digital Forensics, the bank laid off the accused employees, negotiated favorable settlement agreements, and renegotiated loans. The collected digital artifacts helped the bank ensure compliance, avoid negative publicity and penalties, and save resources.

Proven Data Success Story
Challenge: Attacked by ransomware, a housing company had to act swiftly to prevent a data breach, data loss, and business loss due to operational downtime.
Solution: To devise a comprehensive strategy against the attack, Proven Data assessed the type of ransomware and its impact on the company's systems. Based on the findings, it started decrypting the encrypted data while being careful not to damage the files. At the same time, it received permission from the client to negotiate the ransom and managed to reduce the demand from $700,000 to $150,000.
Results: Within 24 hours, Proven Data completely restored the client’s systems, recovered encrypted data, and averted a potential disaster. Notably, Proven Data reduced 80% of the company costs, as the client only needed to pay the digital forensics company’s service fee instead of the $700,000 ransom fee.

Cyber Diligence Success Story
Challenge: A Fortune 500 company contacted Cyber Diligence to inconspicuously investigate an employee suspected of industrial espionage and disclosing trade secrets.
Solution: Cyber Diligence used a high-speed forensic drive duplicator to obtain a forensic copy of the suspect’s laptop hard drive without turning it on and found a data scrubber and a full arsenal of hacking and anti-forensic tools. While suspicious, it was not concrete evidence of malicious company activity. However, Cyber Diligence continued monitoring network traffic and analyzing logs, looking for an opportunity to prove the suspect’s illegal activities.
Results: After a week of investigating, Cyber Diligence proved the suspect’s involvement in industrial espionage by tracing his steps as he hacked into the accounts of other employees, downloaded their research, and compromised the entire system. The company was able to collect sufficient evidence to support the criminal charges against the suspect.

Envista Forensics Success Story
Challenge: With one of its clients experiencing a server failure after terminating its contract with an IT vendor, a large insurance carrier commissioned Envista Forensics to investigate the case. The insurer suspected a virus or malicious activity but had no factual evidence to corroborate the claim.
Solution: Envista Forensics analyzed the server, computer network, and original hard disk drives (HDDs). It discovered that public Internet Protocol (IP) addresses were accessing the client’s network, damaging its SQL database, file structures, and files. The digital forensics company traced the IP address and found that the former IT vendor was behind the incident.
Results: By uncovering the root cause of the incident, Envista Forensics helped the insurance carrier justify its client’s claims for funds to cover a portion of its losses. Additionally, it assisted in the FBI investigation, supplying sufficient evidence to conduct a comparative investigation and confiscate the IT vendor’s equipment.

Kroll Success Story
Challenge: For 40 years, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities (BLMIS) orchestrated the largest Ponzi scheme in the US.

Solution: Kroll’s valuation advisory, data analytics, and digital forensics teams analyzed 40 million documents, evaluated work streams, and examined dozens of codes used to commit fraud. It also reviewed pleadings, depositions, and trial testimonies and provided witness testimony when needed.
Results: Kroll has helped the client recover $14 billion, which has been distributed among the victims.

Group IB Success Story
Challenge: Ransomware held a special needs school's data hostage. While the school’s IT team contained the damage through backup data, it lacked the resources to counter such complex cyberattacks. The school’s outdated security practices further exacerbated the issue, making its system highly vulnerable to additional attacks.
Solution: Employing full-stack digital forensics, Group IB analyzed the client’s system, collected evidence, and retraced the attack lifecycle. This allowed it to stop the current cyber-attack, identify the threat actors, and eliminate potential points of access. During this process, the same group attempted a second attack using the same tactics but was quickly countered.
Results: Following Group IB’s expertise, the school avoided data breaches of sensitive student and family information, swiftly contained and stopped the ransomware attack, and prevented paying a hefty ransom. Additionally, Group IB helped the school boost its security measures, making it more resilient against future attacks.

Challenge: One of the largest firms in Japan was involved in a high-profile criminal investigation and needed to extract five years of data from its cloud-based calendar.

Solution: FTI Consulting analyzed the app's Android and Apple versions, studied it against iTunes backup, explored its cloud features, and examined its web version.

They have assisted with and been successful in recouping squandered AWS credits from instances that were abandoned following work by previous developers that led to excessive monthly costs. I received a test flight to inspect the features that had been applied up to this point and were functioning within the bounds.

Pankaj's Review Sourced from Google
I am currently working as a Principal Software Engineer at Dash. When I first joined, I was excited but also a bit nervous as it was a new environment for me. Over time, I realized that Dash has a very positive and supportive work culture.It is a place where employees are encouraged to learn, grow, and take on new challenges. What stands out the most is the transparency within the organization and the accessibility of the leadership team, including the CEO. Everyone's ideas and opinions are valued, which creates a strong sense of trust and collaboration.I am grateful to be part of such an amazing organization and look forward to growing further with the team.

Saša Stefanović's Review Sourced from Google
Caplan Artificial introduced artificial intelligence into our medical practice. We are a company that manufactures and distributes medical equipment throughout the Balkans, and we had a 30-year archive of data (digitized only 5–6 years ago) through which we could not efficiently search and access all the information. The guys installed an internal LLM and connected it to our systems, which drastically reduced the time to information. Their team was very professional and friendly.

jitendra kumar prajapat's Review Sourced from Google
This company is not good. They called me for an interview and then sent me back home, saying they would take the interview on Google Meet instead. After the interview, they told me that I was not selected. When I asked for the reason, they said they couldn’t give feedback because multiple interviews were conducted. Very bad — this is not good behavior. They are just wasting employees’ time.

5 Frequently Asked Questions About Digital Forensics Firms
What are the different branches of digital forensics?
Digital forensics encompasses several specialized areas, with firms tailoring their services to the specific needs, goals, and circumstances of their clients. Common branches include:
Computer forensics focuses on data from computers, servers, and storage media.
Network forensics monitors and analyzes network traffic and related activities to investigate unauthorized access, potential breaches, and suspicious activities.
Mobile device forensics examines data from smartphones, tablets, and GPS-enabled devices, and related sources such as SIM cards and app data.
Forensic data analysis looks at structured data to uncover patterns linked to fraud, misconduct, or other irregularities.
Database forensics investigates database content, metadata, logs, transactions, and user activity to identify tampering, misuse, or breach-related evidence.
Other types of digital forensics include cloud forensics, IoT (Internet of Things) forensics, malware forensics, digital media forensics, and memory forensics.
How much do their services cost?
The cost of digital forensics services depends on the device type and scope, data volume, urgency, case type (e.g., civil, criminal, internal), and required expertise.
Agency location is another factor that impacts cost, with certified experts in the United States charging $150-$400+ per hour or $1,500-$8,000 per export.
Some digital forensics services companies also offer a tiered pricing engagement model, with prices ranging between $5,000 to over $100,000, depending on the complexity of the case.
What is the difference between digital forensics and e-discovery?
Digital forensics is the investigative process of identifying, preserving, recovering, analyzing, and interpreting digital evidence to reconstruct events and determine what happened, how it happened, and who was involved. It is used in cyber incidents, internal investigations, suspected misconduct, and other matters where the integrity and meaning of digital evidence are important.
E-discovery is the legal process of identifying, preserving, collecting, processing, reviewing, analyzing, and producing electronically stored information (ESI) that is relevant to a dispute, investigation, arbitration, or court matter.
Here is a side-by-side comparison of each:
Digital Forensics
E-Discovery
Purpose
Investigates and validates digital evidence
Locates and produces relevant ESI for legal use
Methods
Includes forensic imaging, artifact analysis, timeline reconstruction, metadata review, and data recovery
Focuses on evidence preservation, collection, processing, search, review, and presentation
Often, e-discovery processes employ digital forensics expertise, especially when the ESI is in the raw format (metadata or code) or is suspected of having been tampered with.
How do digital forensics companies help make digital evidence admissible in court?
While the court ultimately decides whether evidence is admissible, a reputable firm strengthens admissibility by following lawful collection procedures, preserving authenticity and integrity, maintaining clear documentation, and using reliable methods that can be explained and defended in court.
They typically do this through practices, such as:
Chain of custody: Documenting who collected, accessed, transferred, stored, and analyzed the evidence, when each step occurred, and what was done to it throughout the investigation.
Forensic imaging and integrity verification: Creating a forensic copy when appropriate and using hashing or similar integrity checks to show that the working copy is a true copy of the original and has not been altered.
Metadata preservation: Preserving file-system and application metadata, such as timestamps, authorship, and editing history, because that contextual information may be important to the investigation and to later testimony.
Validated methods and documentation: Using tested tools, standard procedures, and records detailed enough for another qualified examiner to understand and, where appropriate, reproduce the work.
When should you hire a digital forensics firm?
You should consider hiring a digital forensics firm when you experience any of these situations: suspected data breaches, employee misconduct investigations, fraud, intellectual property theft, insurance-related investigations, and civil or criminal matters involving digital evidence.
Digital forensics can also be useful in internal policy investigations, operational incident reviews, and matters where evidence may have been deleted, altered, or concealed.
You may also need a digital forensics firm when responding to a cyber incident, and want to determine what happened, what systems or data were affected, and how to preserve evidence for legal, regulatory, or recovery purposes.
