Contemporary Computer Consultants

More than 90% of the world's information is created and stored in electronic format. While the digital age makes for efficient business, it also presents major challenges in preserving, protecting, and managing electronic data and intellectual property. Most companies need experienced professionals to help meet the challenges they face in performing daily business operations. And, when companies need to conduct internal investigations -- especially those involving litigation -- discovering and maintaining evidence becomes paramount. Yet, when litigators are asked if their clients have an established practice for handling electronic discovery requests, more than 80% say no.

Like it or not, in case law every computer is a potential crime scene and must be treated with care. CCC has a proven track record in litigation support and computer forensics. Our highly trained, discreet, computer forensics professionals offer state of the art technical expertise, investigative skills, and experience in obtaining and protecting evidence to be used in litigation. In addition, CCC can implement the best system wide IT security solutions for your company.

Computer forensics has become a vital component of corporate investigations and litigation. EvidentData uncovers the details which make or break cases by utilizing well-established methods for acquistition and analysis of electronic evidence. Our methods are time-tested and acceptable to courts of law. From investigating errant employees to responding to network intrusions, we are hands-on partners ready to join your team. We do much more than copy data: we find answers.

Electronic Discovery
A successful electronic discovery project must include a well-executed plan of preservation, acquisition, review, and production of electronic evidence. CCC leverages our expertise in computer forensics to efficiently collect relevant data early in the discovery processes in a manner that withstands legal and judicial scrutiny. We work with clients to ensure electronic discovery projects get done right the first time - avoiding the wasted effort and needless cost of "fixing" discovery problems.

Internet Investigations
CCC experts understand the Internet. Our Internet investigations have included tracking down the sources of "anonymous" e-mails, archiving websites infringing upon trademarks, identifying intellectual property leaks, and infiltrating online communities. We have developed proven efficient techniques for conducting online investigations and, as a result, CCC is ideally suited to assist in these urgent matters.

Expert Consulting
As technical professionals well accustomed to participating in court-ordered inspections of computer systems, we help our clients execute and respond to such mandates. CCC experts have extensive experience with the protocols used to identify responsive material while also protecting privilege and privacy. Not surprisingly, CCC experts also excel at advising litigators performing technical depositions and interviews.

Testimony
The professional qualifications of the CCC team have been accepted in many jurisdictions. Our proven methodologies have been successfully tested in court. As qualified experts, we help litigators pursue their cases by preparing declarations, responding to interrogatories, and providing expert testimony. CCC is uniquely qualified to guide you through all stages of a case involving computer systems, from early incident response to eventual success in court.

Incident Response
CCC is prepared to react immediately when your business is threatened. Our experienced examiners utilize incident response procedures designed to properly preserve, acquire, and analyze electronic evidence. Customizing our response to your situation, we may employ traditional computer forensics, network forensics, or cutting edge response procedures that involve acquiring data from live systems. And we understand continuity of service must be balanced with the need to collect evidence which one day may be used in civil litigation or criminal prosecution.

Vulnerability Assessment
Securing computer systems is an ongoing process, one in which effective defense requires periodic attack. We perform vulnerability assessments to determine if clients are susceptible to external or internal compromise without adversely impacting the computer systems upon which they rely. As a uniquely qualified team of trusted computer forensics experts, CCC is frequently called in to help protect our clients' most sensitive data.
