Our Forensics Capabilities

New York Computer Forensics employs certified examiners (CCE, EnCE, and ACE) who have successfully extracted and presented digital evidence in federal and state courts across the tri-state area. Every engagement follows strict chain-of-custody protocols from the moment we take custody of evidence.

Computer Forensics & Deleted Data Recovery

Our examiners recover data that users believed was permanently deleted, including documents, images, browsing history, and application artifacts, from desktops, laptops, servers, and external media using industry-leading forensic tools.
