What can a digital detective do for you?

Mobile phones, smart watches, tablets, computers, smart TVs and very soon smart cars, smart fridges, microwaves, dishwashers, washing machines, smart vacuum cleaners, CCTV cameras, smart wallets, travel cards and digital tickets, generate a staggering amount of data. This data can be harvested, collected, analysed and reported on for various purposes, both good or bad.
A digital detective collects, analyses this data and reaches irrefutable conclusions formatted in a legal report admissible in court.
