Kaighn Smith Jr., Shareholder at Drummond Woodsum, described his experience in using BitSec’s services as follows: “BitSec combines rare talents in computer forensics and private investigatory work. I have never worked with a team that deals so well with the personal and technical aspects of complex, high-tech, high-risk investigations. I can well-understand why BitSec has a superb national and international reputation for its work.”

Travis Meek, an attorney at Pierce Atwood said this about BitSec’s forensic services: “With the hope of discovering some “smoking gun” evidence of trade secret infringement by our client’s former employee, we contacted BitSec to perform a very thorough (and tedious) forensic examination of the individual’s particularly large hard drive. Right from the start, Mike Webber was a pleasure to work with. He met with us at our office and quickly helped us outline a plan for mirroring and, eventually, examining the former employee’s hard drive. He then went through the lengthy process of mirroring the hard drive, developing a program to aid in the search, ultimately performing the hard drive search using the long list of key words that our client believed would lead us to the “goods”. All the while, Mr. Webber maintained a steady stream of courteous and professional communications updating us on his progress. Needless to say, we were very pleased with BitSec’s service and would certainly use them again.”
