Data processing by us
Hand the evidence over to us and we take care of the entire forensic processing in-house. Guaranteed process quality and court-admissible results, with no internal effort on your side.
Evidence Collection
Law enforcement, lawyers, or compliance teams provide the original evidence. This can include:
- Physical devices like laptops or hard drives
- Digital files, emails, and raw data
- Forensic formats such as AD1 and E01
Secure Data Intake
We receive evidence through a strictly controlled handover process:
- All data remains traceable from the start
- Full protection of evidence integrity
- Compliance with legal and security standards
Forensic Imaging
To preserve the integrity of the original material, we create forensic images. These exact replicas allow us to work on the data without ever altering the source files.
Data Processing
Our processing engine extracts relevant content from all formats:
- Optical character recognition (OCR) for scanned documents
- Email extraction from mailboxes
- Conversion of structured, semi-structured and unstructured files into usable formats
Data Structuring
Processed data is standardized into a unified, court-ready format:
- Preservation of metadata
- Ensuring legal admissibility
- Integrity guaranteed
Analysis Access
Clients can choose between secure access methods:
- Offline access: A fully secured laptop running Sinabis Analytics Inspector, operating entirely offline
- Secure remote access: A laptop with a preconfigured VPN connecting securely to our data center in Frankfurt
Every piece of evidence is handled with the highest level of security, transparency, and compliance, from intake to final analysis.
