Computer forensics is the scientific process of collecting, analyzing and presenting evidence from desktop computers, laptops and servers in a manner that is legally admissible in court. CKC Consulting recovers deleted files, analyzes internet activity, examines email communications, investigates system logs and identifies unauthorized access or data manipulation.
Each examination begins with forensic imaging: an exact bit-for-bit copy of the storage device, made with write-blocking hardware so the original evidence is never altered. Our procedures are designed to meet or exceed standards set by organizations such as the International Association of Computer Investigative Specialists (IACIS) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
CKC Consulting was named a Texas Lawyer Best of 2026 Top 3 Texas-Based Computer Forensics Firm in Dallas.

Computer Forensics Services FAQs
What can a computer forensics examination recover?
From computers we can recover deleted files, email communications, internet browsing history, system logs and application data, including information users believe has been permanently deleted. What can be recovered depends on the device type, operating system, storage technology and time elapsed since deletion.
How do you keep computer evidence admissible?
We begin with forensic imaging, an exact bit-for-bit copy made with write-blocking hardware so the original is never modified. Cryptographic hashing verifies data integrity throughout, and every step is documented with chain of custody records, the procedures used and timestamps for all activities.
Do you provide computer forensics expert witness testimony?
Yes. Our experts have experience testifying in both federal and state courts, and our expert witness services include case consultation, expert report preparation, deposition testimony and courtroom presentation.
How is computer forensics different from eDiscovery?
Digital forensics is a detailed technical analysis of devices and data to uncover evidence that may not be readily apparent, such as deleted files or system artifacts. eDiscovery is the broader collection, review and production of business documents and communications in response to discovery requests. CKC Consulting provides both.
