Digital technologies are now an integral part of almost all private and business processes. Smartphones, computers, servers, cloud systems, and messaging services store extensive information about communication, user behavior, files, locations, and technical activities. These digital traces are becoming increasingly relevant when security incidents need to be investigated, data reconstructed, or electronic evidence needs to be secured in a traceable manner.

The IT forensics Nuremberg supports companies, private individuals, law firms, and organizations with the technical analysis of digital incidents and the structured evaluation of electronic data. The goal of every investigation is the traceable reconstruction of digital processes and the technically sound preservation of relevant information.

The Nuremberg metropolitan region is one of the most important economic locations in Bavaria. Companies from the industrial, logistics, automotive, retail, IT, medical technology, and research sectors operate with complex digital infrastructures and highly networked systems. At the same time, the risks posed by cyberattacks, data loss, compromised devices, and internal security incidents are increasing significantly.

Private individuals from Nuremberg, Fürth, Erlangen, Schwabach, Bamberg or Ansbach are also increasingly turning to IT forensics when smartphones show unusual activity, data disappears or there is suspicion of digital surveillance.

Note: The LB Group has a branch in Nuremberg. However, the technical laboratory analysis and central data evaluation are carried out exclusively at the main headquarters.
