Ellington Digital Forensics

We are a nationwide Digital Forensics lab located in Raleigh, North Carolina. Our state-of-the-art lab features AccessData Products including FTK, and mobile device acquisitions using Cellebrite UFED technology. We specialize in discrete field acquisitions in civil, corporate, domestic and family law situations. We are regularly involved in large-scale data acquisitions and court-ordered seizures, and we have the technology to capture large numbers of desktops, servers and mobile devices simultaneously.

We are testifying experts. Derek Ellington is an ACFE Certified Fraud Examiner, specializing in computer crimes.  He is also a Certified Computer Forensic Examiner and a ACEDS Certified E-Discovery Specialist.  He is also a Licensed Private Investigator.

All data is treated as evidence and every step of our process is audited. We utilize security controls to protect confidentiality as we routinely deal with sensitive corporate, financial and HIPAA data.

Civil investigations can ultimately turn into criminal cases. We use the same protocols as law enforcement to ensure the integrity of the evidence and work closely with them to transition the data that we recover into their custody.

Our video and audio lab features some of the most advanced software available. Our Forensic Audio Technician routinely restores and enhances everything from audio recordings and voicemails to 911 calls.

We are IT experts and provide IT transition services and Computer Systems Auditing and fraud review.
