The big pay-back
Another client was ecstatic when our examination of one of their employee’s computers revealed that they had been downloading valuable client information in order to start up a rival business. They declared the potential savings to them to be in the region of US $10 Million as direct result of two days of our consultancy time.

A natural attraction
An insurance company were contesting a claim for £100,000 for loss of all data from a company’s central computer. The computer had allegedly been flattened by a large industrial magnet and all the data had disappeared from the hard disk. We were able to confirm the extensive damage to the casing and motherboard of the computer, but the hard disk was undamaged and we recovered all the data from it, thus saving the insurance company from a fraudulent claim.

Sold a pup
A large corporate company had paid a considerable sum of money upon delivery of a state of the art computer system running on a mirrored RAID array. They could not get the system to work at all and called us when the supplier refused to co-operate further. Extensive examination of the hard disk revealed that none of the operating system files were present and that what had been delivered would never work.

Dial a date
We were called in by a leading London company when they discovered that files were going missing from their central computer systems. A covert operation followed and we were able to prove that it was a disgruntled ex-employee who was dialling in through a forgotten modem and tampering with their data.

The Y2K scam
A book keeping firm called us in when they began to experience problems with data relating to dates past the millennium. They could not understand why they were experiencing these problems as they had paid a computer firm to upgrade their computers to be able to cope with the Year 2000. We checked all of their machines and were able to confirm that no Year 2000 software had been loaded on the machines and that they had been defrauded.
