Advanced Computer Forensics,
Data Recovery and Investigation Services
Employee fraud and computer misuse is a growing problem
within every organisation. When a suspected criminal
or illegal activity is discovered it is usually months
after the misdeed has begun that internal company controls
find something is amiss. Once the suspected activity
is identified and before outside law firms or law enforcement
agencies are brought in to investigate the activity,
most organisations will conduct an internal investigation
into the allegations to ensure they represent what is
suspected and the activity is something substantial.
When it has been decided that an internal investigation
will be conducted prior to notifying law enforcement,
ensure that the methods used in the investigation adhere
to all the standards of electronic evidence. At Data
Recovery UK Limited, our procedural
guidelines maintain strict transfer, storage and
chain-of-custody procedures, while ensuring adherence
to the Data Protection Act 1998, the Computer Misuse
Act and the ACPO Good Practice Guidelines for Computer
Based Electronic Evidence.
Investigations of a suspected fraud or misuse must
first be sensitive to the Data Protection Act 1998 and
the Computer Misuse law in the handling of an employee’s
personal information. If employees are not aware of
their rights under these regulations and a company has
not informed them through clearly stated internal communications
then the investigation could be in contravention.
With the growing use of computer technology and the
sophistication of those conducting the activity, it
is a company’s responsibility to ensure they use
the latest in investigation techniques to uncover the
full extent of the activity.
State-of-the-art technology
Our dedicated team of forensics engineers, investigators
and analysts use the latest in available techniques,
