TECHNICAL BACKGROUND

Technical Fundamentals

You can document the state of the operating system at the time of a crash, thereby providing valuable clues as to the technical cause. However, their significance only becomes apparent once all relevant artefacts have been analysed as a whole.

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
Once a forensic image has been created, any existing crash dumps are backed up and analysed. The results are then technically assessed alongside other digital evidence.
