Are You Aware of the Risks?
Tampering
Attempting to alter, conceal, falsify or destroy online evidence can cost you a case, or worse, result in catastrophic lawsuits against your firm.
False Positives
With over 240 million social media users in the US alone, it can be easy to misidentify a subject’s online profiles without proper training and authentication tools.
Unethical Behaviors
“Friending” to gain access information is an example of behavior that can render your evidence useless in court.
Exposure
Failure to encrypt sensitive information and store it on secure servers can leave you and your firm vulnerable to data breaches.
