Evidence Preservation
Establish a structured approach for preserving relevant digital evidence and documenting the scope, source, and handling of collected material.
ICX / DIGITAL FORENSICS
Digital forensics in India & worldwide.
Imperial CyberX provides digital forensic investigation services for organizations that need to preserve, examine, correlate, and document digital evidence associated with suspected incidents, unauthorized activity, data exposure, or other security events.

THE FORENSIC PROCESS
Preserve first. Analyze carefully. Document the findings.
Digital forensics focuses on extracting useful information from digital artifacts and organizing those observations into an investigation. The precise scope depends on the systems, evidence sources, authorization, incident, and objectives defined for the engagement.
Imperial CyberX structures investigations around preservation, controlled acquisition, analysis, correlation, timeline reconstruction, findings, and technical reporting.
PRESERVE
Protect relevant evidence and document its source and scope.
ACQUIRE
Collect approved digital material using a controlled workflow.
ANALYZE
Examine relevant artifacts and identify observable findings.
CORRELATE
Connect evidence and timestamps into a coherent event picture.
FORENSIC SCOPE
What can be investigated.
Investigation scope is defined around the authorized evidence sources and objectives of the engagement.
Forensic Acquisition
Acquire relevant digital material from approved systems, devices, storage, or other in-scope sources using a controlled forensic workflow.
Endpoint & Device Analysis
Examine relevant files, system activity, user activity, applications, artifacts, and other available evidence from in-scope endpoints or devices.
Timeline Reconstruction
Correlate available artifacts and timestamps to reconstruct sequences of events surrounding a suspected incident.
Incident Investigation
Analyze digital evidence to help establish what happened, which systems or accounts were involved, and which observable indicators are relevant to the investigation.
Forensic Reporting
Produce structured technical findings, evidence references, observations, timelines, and investigation summaries appropriate to the engagement.
INVESTIGATION WORKFLOW
From evidence to an explainable timeline.
01
Scope
Define the incident, evidence sources, authorization, objectives, and investigation boundaries.
02
Preserve
Identify relevant evidence and establish a documented preservation approach.
03
Acquire
Collect approved evidence sources using an appropriate forensic workflow.
04
Analyze
Examine artifacts, system activity, files, accounts, and other relevant observations.
05
Correlate
Build timelines and connect evidence across relevant sources.
06
Report
Document technical findings, evidence references, limitations, and investigation observations.
