Why the Need to use Forensic Computing Ltd?

As yourself a question: 

“Would you ask the Jason (the Saturday assistant) in your local bicycle repair shop to prepare your high performance motorbike for its next championship race”? 

The analogy may appear frivolous, but this is what many people do when looking for digital forensic services. 

Jason deals with two wheelers on Saturdays, but the difference between a bicycle and a motorbike are pretty obvious to see and they need different skills. 

Would you trust Jason to fix your motorbike? The same applies to digital forensics.

You may well find someone with experience of computing spanning 20 years or more but with little or no knowledge of the digital forensic processes and procedures. 

You should ensure that anyone who is going to undertake such a task has the relevant training and skill. FCL recommend that a suitable starting point would be their Choosing a Forensic Expert checklist.
