Digital forensic services. A specialty service within the realm of incident response, where consultants
capture and analyze data stored in media formats following strict procedures, and if necessary,

exfiltrated. This service includes the practitioner working with the incident response team, and
creating digital images of suspect media, investigating that media using specialized tools, and
preparing evidence for eventual prosecution.
