Our comprehensive IP theft detection services
Proven Data’s IP theft investigations uncover who accessed your data, when it happened, and how the theft occurred. Our investigations follow strict industry standard protocols to maintain chain of custody and legal admissibility.
Insider threat investigations
Our forensic examiners analyze access logs, email records, and file transfers to determine if confidential information was copied, shared, or removed without authorization.
Multi-Platform forensics
Our team is equipped to analyze devices across Windows, macOS, and Linux environments, as well as iPhone or Android smartphones. We extract and interpret artifacts such as user activity logs, file histories, and network traces. No critical evidence is overlooked, regardless of the operating system.
Employee departure investigations
When an employee leaves or is about to be terminated, our experts use forensically sound imaging to reveal whether sensitive files were copied or transferred via USB, email, or cloud storage prior to departure.
Deleted data recovery
Proven Data’s forensic experts use advanced recovery tools to restore deleted or hidden data that may contain evidence of intellectual property theft or policy violations.
Forensic reporting & expert testimony
Our investigations compile digital evidence of data exfiltration paths, user activity artifacts, and recovered proprietary files, which are structured to support your legal strategy. We then deliver comprehensive investigative reports and provide clear expert witness testimony to strengthen your case during litigation or enforcement proceedings.
Using eDiscovery for IP theft investigations
Our eDiscovery services are the essential link between raw digital evidence and a prosecutable IP theft case. While our digital forensics services uncover the act of theft, count on our team of experts to collect, filter, and organize that vast amount of electronic data from multiple communication apps. This allows legal teams to efficiently review and pinpoint the specific "smoking gun" communications and files, revealing intent and building a clear, defensible timeline of the theft for litigation or law enforcement.











Digital Forensic Data Sources & Analysis
When your intellectual property is stolen, the evidence is left behind on computers, mobile devices, and network servers. This digital evidence is fragile, often hidden, and intentionally deleted. Proven Data’s digital forensics team will follow the digital trail to uncover the truth, determine exactly what was taken, and build the concrete foundation for your legal case.
Forensic Device Examination
We extract and analyze evidence from all relevant sources, including computers, mobile phones, and cloud storage, to trace user activity and data movement.
Deleted Data Recovery
We use advanced techniques to recover deleted files, communications, and browser histories that prove intent and identify the scope of the theft.
Event Timeline Reconstruction
We piece together metadata, system logs, and network traffic to build a clear, second-by-second timeline of the data theft, which shows exactly who took what, and when.
Court-Ready Evidence Preservation
We begin by creating a forensically sound, bit-for-bit image of the original data. This preserves its integrity and a defensible chain of custody, ensuring all evidence is admissible in court.
Expert Testimony & Reporting
Our investigators translate complex technical findings into clear, detailed reports and provide expert witness testimony to explain the evidence convincingly to opposing counsel, judges, and juries.
