Understanding Evidence Preservation & Data Acquisition

Digital evidence is fragile, and improper handling can lead to data corruption, loss, or inadmissibility in legal cases. Evidence preservation and data acquisition involve systematically securing, extracting, and storing digital information to maintain its authenticity.
Our forensic experts use industry-standard methodologies to capture data from various sources, including hard drives, mobile devices, cloud storage, and network logs, ensuring that no critical evidence is overlooked. By implementing forensic imaging, bit-by-bit cloning, and volatile data capture, we preserve data integrity while maintaining a legally defensible chain of custody.
Key Aspects of Evidence
Preservation & Data Acquisition

Forensic Data Integrity

Ensuring digital evidence remains untampered is crucial for legal and investigative purposes. Our forensic acquisition methods protect the original data while allowing for thorough analysis.

Bit-by-Bit Cloning

We create exact forensic images of storage devices, preserving all files, metadata, and even deleted data to maintain accuracy in digital investigations.

Live & Static Data Collection

Our experts capture both live (volatile) data, such as active network sessions and system memory, and static (stored) data, ensuring a complete forensic approach.

Chain of Custody Compliance

Maintaining a documented chain of custody ensures that collected evidence remains admissible in court. Our process follows industry and legal standards to safeguard data authenticity.

Remote & On-Site Acquisition

We offer both remote data collection for cloud-based evidence and on-site forensic imaging for physical devices, ensuring flexibility based on the case's requirements.

Legal & Corporate Investigations

From intellectual property theft to fraud investigations, our evidence preservation services support legal teams, businesses, and law enforcement agencies with defensible digital proof.

Secure & Defensible Digital
Evidence Collection

Proper evidence preservation is the foundation of any successful forensic investigation. Mishandling or altering data can compromise its credibility, making it inadmissible in legal proceedings. At LJONES CFA, LLC, we ensure that digital evidence is collected, stored, and analyzed using forensically sound methods that maintain its authenticity.
