MOBILE FORENSICS

Verification of the authenticity of digital evidence

Digital evidence such as chat histories, photos, videos or documents is playing an increasingly important role in legal proceedings and internal investigations. What matters here is not just the content, but whether the evidence is technically authentic and to what extent its origin and integrity can be verified.

OUR APPROACH

This is how your examination will be carried out

A transparent process – from the initial enquiry to the handover of the report.

1
Following a forensic data backup, all relevant artefacts are systematically analysed. The results are not considered in isolation, but are correlated with other technical evidence in order to reach reliable conclusions.
2
LanCologne prepares private expert reports on behalf of private individuals, companies and solicitors, as well as expert reports in connection with court-ordered investigations. Our investigations have already been used in various court proceedings. Furthermore, in certain cases we have been directly commissioned to prepare IT forensic reports. All stages of the investigation are documented in a transparent manner. Where legally permissible, anonymised and redacted reports can be provided as references.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click on a question to see the answer.

Can a screenshot be accepted as evidence?
Yes. A screenshot can be analysed from a technical perspective, but it does not usually replace an examination of the original data.
Is metadata alone sufficient?
No. Only by combining several artefacts is it possible to make a reliable assessment.
Can tampering be proven beyond doubt?
Not always. The aim is to carry out an objective assessment of the available technical evidence.
Are hash values taken into account?
Where available, hash values are used to verify data integrity.
Will I receive a written report?
Yes. All results are documented in a structured and transparent manner.
