How can we help?

Digital Forensic Lab Services

What digital forensic lab services do we offer? And how do they help meet customer needs?

CACI’s Digital forensic laboratory (DFL) services have been designed to meet the needs of Law Enforcement customers, namely the capture and preservation of data stored on computer and phone type devices, the processing of acquired data, the review of processed data and the analysis and report writing of key findings.

However, as service requirements can differ between clients and between contracts, DFL must be flexible in their approach in order to meet a broad range of customer needs. To achieve this, DFL work with clients to understand and document their needs for each piece of work. By doing so, all service requirements are discussed and agreed with clients prior to the initiation of DFL services. Agreed service requirements are recorded within Client Work Instruction documents, which are version controlled and reviewed each time a service request is received.

The following table defines the phases of services provided by DFL:
