Our Expertise
Infotainment forensics is a branch of digital forensics relating to recovery of digital evidence or data stored in automotive infotainment modules, often referred to as GPS units, Command or Head-Up Units. Data such as GPS routes, locations, way points, paired mobile phone data, calls, contacts and GPRS data can be recovered under forensically sound conditions. Digitpol is an accredited vehicle forensics examination agency, we conduct examination on all types of vehicles and infotainment / media systems to undercover evidence that can be used to investigate crimes. Digitpol's expertise in extracting and analyzing data from IVI systems, including navigation history, call logs, text messages, and media files, and can use this digital evidence to assist in investigations related to motor vehicle accidents, traffic violations, and other crimes committed in or around a vehicle.
When investigating incidents involving a vehicle, such as a motor vehicle accident or a crime committed in or around a vehicle, digital evidence from the ECU may be relevant to the investigation. This evidence can include data such as speed, acceleration, braking, and other vehicle performance data.
To conduct a forensic analysis of the ECU, specialized tools and techniques are used to extract data from the ECU in a forensically sound manner. The extracted data is then analyzed to identify potential evidence relevant to the investigation.
Digitpol provides vehicle ECU forensic identification services, using specialized tools and techniques to extract digital evidence from the ECU of a vehicle. The extracted data is then analyzed by their digital forensic investigators, who have the necessary expertise to identify and present potential evidence in a clear and concise manner.
Overall, vehicle ECU forensic identification is an important aspect of vehicle forensics that can provide valuable digital evidence in the investigation of incidents involving vehicles. Digitpol's vehicle ECU forensic identification services can assist law enforcement agencies, insurance companies, and other organizations in uncovering potential evidence and supporting their investigations.
Crash data recovery is a specialized area of digital forensics that involves the recovery and analysis of data from a vehicle's airbag control module (ACM) or event data recorder (EDR) following a motor vehicle accident. The ACM or EDR is a component of a vehicle's safety system that records data related to the vehicle's speed, braking, acceleration, and other performance metrics leading up to and during an accident.
The data recorded by the ACM or EDR can be used to reconstruct the events leading up to a motor vehicle accident and can provide valuable information about the cause of the accident. For example, crash data recovery can help determine if a driver was speeding or if brakes were applied before a collision.
Digitpol provides crash data recovery services, which involve the extraction and analysis of data from a vehicle's ACM or EDR following a motor vehicle accident. Their experts use specialized tools and techniques to extract digital evidence from the ACM or EDR in a forensically sound manner, ensuring that the evidence is admissible in a court of law.
The extracted data is then analyzed by their digital forensic investigators, who have the necessary expertise to interpret the data and identify potential evidence relevant to the investigation. The findings are presented in a clear and concise manner, which can assist law enforcement agencies, insurance companies, and other organizations in determining the cause of a motor vehicle accident and supporting their investigations.
Overall, crash data recovery is an important aspect of vehicle forensics that can provide valuable digital evidence in the investigation of motor vehicle accidents. Digitpol's crash data recovery services can assist in the investigation of accidents and support legal proceedings related to the accident.
Automotive forensics is a specialized branch of digital forensics that involves the recovery and analysis of digital evidence from automotive modules, networks, and messages sent across operating systems. Vehicles are equipped with a CAN BUS (Controller Area Network) network that enables automotive modules to operate on, and messages are broadcasted across the CAN BUS network that can be recovered under forensically sound conditions. Digitpol is an accredited vehicle forensics examination agency that provides services to uncover evidence that can be used to investigate crimes. They conduct examinations on all types of vehicles and stand-alone parts to recover digital evidence that may be relevant to a case.
Overall, automotive forensics is a specialized area of digital forensics that requires specialized knowledge, training, and tools.
