When EnCase, the premier computer forensic software, was first introduced at the 1999 IACIS forensic computer conference, DataChasers was there!

What Is Computer Forensics

Computer Forensics is the science of identifying, recovering, extracting, preserving, and documenting ESI (Electronically Stored Information) so that it can be presented as evidence in a court of law. Although relatively new to the private sector, computer forensics has been an evidence gathering tool of technology-related investigations and intelligence gathering in law enforcement and military agencies since the mid-1980s. However, only since 1999 have the tools been developed that make the examination process comprehensive, expedient, and financially feasible.

Since then, computer forensics has become a litigation tool for the legal community. Computer forensic science deals with the application of law to a science, as does any forensic application. The goal of a computer forensic examination is a structured investigation, protecting the evidence from corruption while maintaining a documented chain of evidence to discover what evidence the computer data holds, and who is responsible for that data.

Computer forensic investigators are certified, licensed, adhere to a rigorous discipline, and use a variety of techniques and proprietary forensic applications to examine the ESI…all geared to accomplish a complete “autopsy” of the forensic computer data on a hard drive.
