Digital Evidence Acquisition, Analysis & Reporting
Digital Forensics focuses on identifying, acquiring, processing, analyzing, and reporting on data stored on computers, mobile devices, servers, DVR/CCTV systems, and cloud platforms. The goal is to extract relevant data, transform it into actionable intelligence, and present findings in a legally admissible manner with full chain-of-custody.
