The term computer forensics refers to a refined combination of technology and art. A computer forensic expert uses the existing data on electronic systems to roll back time and paint a coherent picture of what the system was used for yesterday, last week, last month or last year. Their role is to discover what critical information was moved, copied, deleted or compromised, while preserving the integrity of the evidence.

Experienced computer forensic experts, using proven techniques and sophisticated tools, can retrieve and analyze all data on a system to the fullest extent possible. This includes e-mail and deleted files as well as logs and other information that may be relevant to the issues being investigated. Experience in many investigations over the years has allowed Computer Forensics of Boston to develop processes and initiate procedures that render results unmatched in the field.
