IT Forensics and Investigation
Our professionals, led by Tommaso Mauro and Davide Montanaro, rank among the most experienced in Italy in the field of IT forensics and defensive investigations. They provide legal assistance at every stage of the relevant procedures, coordinating their legal activities with the expertise of trusted external consultants—both in Italy and abroad—with whom we have built long-standing partnerships. Notably, Rocco Panetta contributed to the drafting of the Code of Conduct on Forensic Investigations during his tenure as Director at the Italian Data Protection Authority.
The IT Forensics and Investigation legal advisory service offered by PANETTA Consulting Group is designed to support clients in the management and resolution of complex cybersecurity incidents, vulnerability assessments, fraud investigations, and the collection of evidence for potential legal disputes. The service combines advanced digital investigation techniques with legal interpretation of electronic evidence. This is an essential approach in today's highly digitized and complex business environment, where cyber threats and data breaches are increasingly common.
PANETTA Consulting Group brings together a team of experts in forensic IT and cyber law, capable of managing each phase of a digital investigation while ensuring full compliance with applicable regulations and international best practices.
Key areas of advisory include:
- Forensic data analysis: PANETTA’s specialists conduct in-depth forensic examinations of digital devices, corporate networks, and systems to collect and preserve electronic evidence. This is critical for identifying the root causes of incidents, understanding the scope of a breach, and tracing attacker activity.
- Legal support in internal investigations: PANETTA Consulting Group assists clients in conducting internal investigations related to fraud, policy violations, or suspicious activity, ensuring that all evidence is collected lawfully and is admissible in court. The service includes drafting detailed investigation reports and working closely with the client’s privacy team, Data Protection Officer, and any external providers to ensure impartiality and protection of data subjects.
- Incident response: We provide immediate legal support during cybersecurity incidents, helping clients manage crises effectively and minimize damages. This includes guidance on internal and external communications and liaising with regulatory and supervisory authorities.
- Electronic evidence recovery and analysis: Our experts retrieve electronic evidence securely from a range of devices and platforms, including computers, servers, email systems, and cloud environments. The evidence is then analyzed to reconstruct events and support potential legal action.
- Expert testimony: In the event of litigation, PANETTA professionals can act as expert witnesses in court, clearly and comprehensibly explaining the findings of forensic investigations and their legal relevance.
Choosing PANETTA Consulting Group for IT Forensics and Investigation services ensures that every aspect of a digital investigation is handled with precision, diligence, and full compliance with applicable laws.
This integrated approach allows PANETTA clients to respond swiftly to incidents, protect their interests, and safeguard their reputation and the trust of stakeholders.
