"It would give
me pleasure to recommend you to law firms and companies requiring
assistance with computer analyses and forensics. Your ability
to explain to non-technical managers and lawyers what you found

of forces inside and outside the company to thwart efforts
to steal from us."

Regulatory
Support
We
have supported many investigations that are regulatory in nature.
Either proactively or reactively.
We work quickly and confidentially to support corporate counsel,
outside counsel and audit committees respond to employee complaints.
Numerous
laws now require companies to protect customers confidential data.
Some examples are:
Proactive:
We
are used by are customers to image computers of high ranking company
officials when they exit the business.
Reactively:
When
companies want to investigate allegations of regulatory improprieties
we have assisted on several occasions in imaging, analysis and production
of material.
Some ways we have
supported Auditors, lawyers and Corporate Counsel with Sarbanes-Oxley
and others. For more information on our regulatory support
works quickly and
confidentially to support corporate counsel, outside counsel and
audit committees respond to employee complaints.
Numerous
laws now require companies to protect customers confidential data.
Some examples are:
- California SB
1386
- Gramm-Leach-Bliley
Act
- Sarbanes-Oxley
Act
Some ways
we have supported Auditors, lawyers and Corporate Counsel with
Sarbanes-Oxley and others:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Regulatory
Support
Audit Committees:
"Sarbanes-Oxley
establishes a number of requirements, authority and responsibility
of audit committees. Audit committees must have the authority
to engage independent counsel and other advisors as they determine
to be necessary to carry out their duties"
We can obviously
help in imaging drives (locally or remotely) and searching electronic
data at the request of the Audit Committees.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Destruction
of Audit Records:
"Section
802 makes it a crime to willfully destroy audit records prior to
the end of five years from the end of the fiscal period. The
act requires the SEC to promulgate rules relating to the retention
of relevant records such as workpapers, documents that form the
basis of the audit review, memoranda, correspondence, communications,
other documents, and records (including electronic records)
which are created, sent, or received in connection with an audit."
Our imaging and
storage services can assist in the proactive retention of electronic
records. Our complete forensic processing has assisted in
SEC investigations.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rules Regarding
Attorneys:
Section 307
requires the SEC to issue rules setting forth minimum standards
of professional conduct for attorneys appearing and practicing before
the SEC..... These standards are to include a requirement that attorneys
report evidence of a material violation of securities law or breach
of fiduciary duty or similar violation by a company (or agent) to
the chief legal counsel or the CEO and, if that officer does not
appropriately respond to the evidence, reporting the evidence to
the audit committee or the board as a whole"
We support
attorneys in finding the facts and support them with searching for hard
evidence if they have to report something to the company officers
or the board.
We can
also proactively protect the company by imaging computers and
storage of the images for the 5 year retention period. If
someone exits the company call us to image the computer in case
it is required at a later date.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Criminalization
of Misconduct
"The
act makes criminal the following misconduct:
The certification
by a CEO or CFO of a Company periodic report containing financial
statements knowing the certification is not correct
Knowing and
willful destruction of any audit workpapers or other documents which
are connected with an audit
Destruction,
alteration or falsification of records done to impede, obstruct
or influence any governmental investigation or the administration
of any governmental function or bankruptcy proceeding."
"Companies
should revisit their compliance procedures, particularly as they
relate to financial reporting issues. The act also imposes
on audit committees to establish procedures to address, on a confidential
basis, employee complaints regarding questionable accounting practices.
Issuers will want to bolster systems that identify and resolve issues
before they are referred to an external source"
We
work quickly, confidentially to support corporate counsel, outside
counsel and audit committees respond to employee complaints.
