Former Employee Exit Analysis

Find Out What They Took, Deleted or Left Behind

When an employee leaves, uncertainty often follows. Did they take client lists, vendor contacts or planning documents? Did they delete files from the systems they could access? Could your proprietary information now be helping a competitor or a new business? GDF helps you replace those questions with a documented account of the available evidence.

Start With the Former Employee Core Analysis

GDF designed the Former Employee Core Analysis to give businesses a cost effective starting point. Our flat rate approach brings the former employee's devices and accounts into one agreed scope, including desktop and laptop computers, mobile phones, tablets, email, chat and collaboration platforms such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams.

We work with you to identify the information at risk and establish whether the records needed for a full examination exist. The initial analysis helps you decide whether the evidence can answer the questions that matter before you commit to the cost of a full analysis.

Know Whether a Full Analysis Is Worth Pursuing

If the necessary data is there, we can move forward with a focused examination. If the records are unavailable or do not support further work, you can make an informed decision about the next step without paying for a full analysis. You get a clear explanation of what was found, what could be assessed and where the evidence leads.

Turn Digital Activity Into a Clear Timeline

We connect file activity with available device, email and account records to reconstruct copying, transfers and deletions around the departure. Earlier document versions, USB activity, mailbox records and cloud logs can each add a piece of the picture. Reading them together helps establish what happened and which findings can be supported.

Put More Than 30 Years of Forensic Experience Behind Your Case

Global Digital Forensics has served businesses and legal teams since 1992. Our examiners explain the technical record in language clients, counsel and courts can use. When the matter calls for a wider examination or expert testimony, the initial findings give your team a clear starting point for the next engagement.

Get Clarity Before You Commit to a Full Examination

Tell us when the employee left, which devices and accounts are available and what information concerns you. On the free initial consultation, we will discuss the questions the Core Analysis should answer and agree the sources, scope and flat rate before work begins.
