The ESI team of digital forensic experts delivers the full range of identification, preservation, collection and analysis services. ESI experts use state of the art tools and methodologies, providing court accepted forensic analyses, reports and testimony. The ESI response team is fully equipped to collect and preserve electronically stored information onsite, or from electronic media sent to our secure forensic facilities in Toronto, ON or Victoria, BC. Chain of custody is fully documented for all exhibits, mitigating the risk of spoliation allegations.

Often, a full forensic image of the subject digital media is not required and the ESI team can help reduce collection and preservation costs by undertaking a targeted forensic collection instead. Further, a targeted forensic collection can significantly reduce the amount of data that needs subsequent processing, thereby reducing the overall costs of the project even more. The ESI team works with clients to determine the most cost effective, defensible approach to ESI preservation collection and analyses, including assistance with defining custodian lists and interviewing IT personnel to determine the appropriate scope and locations of the data sets to be collected.

Working with the ESI team will allow you to:

• Contain costs – obtain specific quantifiable estimates for budget purposes
• Gain control over the ever rising volume of data to be collected and processed
• Ensure your collection and preservation practices meet current court requirements
• Eliminate the need to constantly train your people and update your software and tools
• Avoid sanctions for failing to meet Electronic Data Discovery (EDD) obligations
• Ensure the right data has been collected, without incurring the unnecessary cost and overhead of over collection of irrelevant data.
