I help clients recover critical data, investigate cyber incidents, and understand what happened across computers, mobile devices, cloud accounts, email accounts, and online activity.
My work focuses on digital forensics, data recovery, cyber breach investigation, OSINT, malware-related analysis, and incident response. Clients usually come to me when they need clear answers after a hack, data loss, account compromise, suspicious activity, deleted files, insider risk, or an online investigation.
What I can help with:
• Data recovery from computers, drives, mobile devices, and storage media
• Digital forensic investigation of devices, files, accounts, logs, and user activity
• Cyber breach investigation to identify what happened, how it happened, and what evidence is available
• Email, cloud, and account compromise review
• Malware, suspicious file, and unauthorized access analysis
• OSINT and online identity investigation
• Clear technical reports that explain findings in plain language
• Practical next steps to secure systems and prevent repeat incidents
I approach every investigation carefully, ethically, and confidentially. My goal is to preserve evidence, recover what is recoverable, explain the facts clearly, and help you make informed decisions.
Tools I use:
I use tools such as Autopsy, FTK Imager, R-Studio, Disk Drill, R-Drive Image, dd, xmount, Volatility, Registry Explorer, RegRipper, Wireshark, tcpdump, Zeek, Magnet AXIOM, Cellebrite UFED, ADB, email header analysis tools, browser artifact tools, log analysis tools, file recovery tools, and Linux forensic tools.
I can also review disk images, memory dumps, mobile backups, cloud exports, email files, screenshots, logs, and other available evidence provided by the client.
Data recovery note:
Data recovery depends on the condition of the device, the storage type, the file system, and whether the data has been overwritten. For SSDs, recovery may be limited or impossible if TRIM or garbage collection has already cleared the deleted data. I always assess the situation first and explain what can realistically be recovered before proceeding.
I approach every investigation carefully, ethically, and confidentially. My goal is to preserve evidence, recover what can be recovered, explain the facts clearly, and help you make informed decisions.
I do not promise impossible recovery or unsupported conclusions. I provide clear findings based on the available evidence, the condition of the device or data, and the artifacts that can be verified.
If you need help understanding a digital incident, recovering important data, or reviewing evidence, I can help you move from uncertainty to clear findings.
