Shield Cyber Forensic Investigation (SCF) is India's enterprise partner for cyber security, digital forensics, cyber crime investigation and digital intelligence — court-admissible, discreet, and available 24/7.
Synthetic UI telemetry — not internet monitoring
SEQ 0000Illustrative evidence-correlation model
How independent digital evidence streams are acquired, preserved, analysed and correlated.
Illustrative hash verification
Module availability — not an active scan
Illustrative relationship model
The modules above are illustrative models of forensic method, driven by one shared display sequence. No file is being hashed, no network is being observed and no case data is shown. Live case work happens in the authenticated portal, against evidence acquired under an authorised engagement.
Specialist practices operating as one integrated defense.
Full physical & logical extraction from iOS, Android and encrypted devices.
Deep-dive analysis of workstations, servers, disks and volatile memory.
Header analysis, spoofing tracebacks and mailbox reconstruction.
Video enhancement, timestamp validation and facial identification.
Open-source intelligence, dark web monitoring and threat attribution.
Due diligence, IP theft, fraud audits and whistleblower probes.
Actionable intel synthesis for boards, legal counsel and law enforcement.
Evidence arrives from unrelated systems in incompatible formats. The work is establishing what connects — and proving where every connection came from.
The visuals above are illustrative models of forensic method. They contain no case data, identifiers, records or findings, and are not connected to a live analysis engine.
Our forensic methodologyIndividually, a device image, a call record and an open-source profile prove little. Correlated under one case record — and traceable back to source — they establish what actually happened.
Open-source intelligence, dark web monitoring and threat attribution.
Actionable intel synthesis for boards, legal counsel and law enforcement.
Due diligence, IP theft, fraud audits and whistleblower probes.
Employment, corporate, tenant and pre-matrimonial checks.
A repeatable, court-defensible pipeline behind every engagement.
Senior investigator triages within 60 minutes under strict NDA.
Written SOW, immediate evidence preservation, chain-of-custody opened.
Air-gapped lab work — acquisition, indexing, deep artifact analysis.
Independent QA and dual-analyst validation of every finding.
§65B-compliant deliverable with exhibits and expert testimony.
Cross-examination support and long-term matter continuity.
Digital evidence is fragile and contestable. Our engagements follow ACPO, NIST SP 800-86 and Indian Evidence Act §65B protocols so findings survive scrutiny.
Full physical & logical extraction from iOS, Android and encrypted devices.
Deep-dive analysis of workstations, servers, disks and volatile memory.
Header analysis, spoofing tracebacks and mailbox reconstruction.
Video enhancement, timestamp validation and facial identification.
Document, handwriting and signature examination by qualified examiners.
Exhibits are identified and preserved before anything is examined.
Examination is performed on working copies, never the original exhibit.
Findings are documented with the method and tooling used to reach them.
Examiners support the report under cross-examination.
Clients and investigators work from one authenticated console. Access is scoped per account, so you see your own matters and nothing else.
Case tracking and evidence upload require a signed-in account. Dedicated analysis workspaces — OSINT, CDR/IPDR, tower analysis and forensic examination — are in active development and are not yet available to clients.
Most people contacting a forensic firm are not sure what they need or how urgent it is. The copilot answers that first question immediately, in your language, at any hour.
The copilot assists with guidance and navigation. It does not analyse evidence, access case records or provide legal advice. Sensitive matters are always handed to a human investigator.
Ask in the language you are comfortable with; it replies in the same one.
Speak instead of typing, and interrupt mid-answer the way you would a person.
Ask for a page or a form and it takes you straight there.

From boardrooms to SOCs — we operate wherever evidence matters.
