Every computer keeps a detailed history of what was done on it — even after files are deleted or drives are "cleaned." Computer forensics recovers and documents that history so it can be relied on in court.
What can computer forensics recover?
- Deleted files, documents, and email
- File access, creation, and modification timelines
- USB and external-device connection history (data theft)
- Browsing, search, and download history
- Evidence of data-wiping tools or anti-forensic activity
- Login and account-activity records
A common case: employee data theft
When a departing employee is suspected of taking files, a forensic timeline can show mass copying to USB or cloud storage, the use of deletion or wiping tools, and the exact sequence of events. These findings are frequently decisive in trade-secret and IP-theft matters.
