How Christchurch Matters Work
Devices can be collected or imaged on site by arrangement, or sent by tracked courier. Cloud and Microsoft 365 data can be collected remotely. Chain of custody is documented from the first point of contact with the evidence. Disclosure and report reviews are done securely and remotely, so there is no wait for travel.
Every examination is carried out by an IACIS-certified examiner (CFCE, ICMDE). You receive a written estimate before any work begins.
