Internet & IT Investigations

In Australia, 41% of businesses have experienced one or more computer-related crimes in the past 12 months.

New threats and vulnerabilities to computer networks are an unavoidable consequence of an expanding IT environment, and those who will exploit those vulnerabilities are becoming increasingly sophisticated at wreaking significant damage.

What We Find

Our investigators regularly identify:

Orginators of suspect email addresses
Commercial espionage
Email and internet abuse
Fraudulent e-commerce activities
Inadequate internal controls and breaches of existing procedures
Pornographic material downloads
Prohibited system modifications
Software piracy
Unauthorised access by staff or intruders
Virus-related problems

Where ongoing fraud is suspected, our imaging captures information for forensic investigation. Subsequent reports or statements can then be used in criminal, civil or industrial tribunal proceedings - for which Victorian Detective Services will provide expert witness testimony.
