5-L digital forensics services provides the safe recovery and reconstruction of data from workstations, laptops, mobile phones, and network hardware.
Digital evidence can exist in many forms and may often be found in the most unexpected locations. 5-L Technology specializes in the acquisition and analysis of digital evidence from both hardware and online sources. Whether data is required from a mobile device, tablet, computer, network hardware, an Information of Things (IoT) device, or from an online service, 5-L Digital Forensics (DF) can navigate and identify target evidence regardless of the source.
5-L follows strict evidence handling practices, and uses court recognized forensic technology to securely acquire device resident data from all types of technology. All acquired image data is validated against the original source and preserved as a forensically reliable image source. Working copies of the original image are used in our analysis, and the resulting contents are classified to organize collected evidence without corrupting the integrity of the original asset.
Depending on the client’s requirements and the evidence source, target contents are then identified and presented in a court admissible format.
From the time of receipt to the return of any evidence the chain of custody is maintained throughout. The integrity of any technical evidence provided to 5-L is handled in accordance with practices to ensure the integrity of the evidence is maintained, and the asset returned is in the same state as when the asset had been placed in our care, custody, and control.
