From data breaches to home security to tracking down criminals, technology is in the news every day. Almost any story a reporter handles these days will have a technology angle to it. The experts at Digital Forensics Corp. can provide the expertise and background reporters need to tell the whole story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We handle all media requests through our Ohio headquarters, but with sufficient lead time we can assist journalists across the United States. For example, when WSB-TV in Atlanta prepared a report on Georgia\u2019s new hands-free law, which restricted use of cell phones while driving, reporter Pete Combs wanted to dive into the technical aspects. He sought to tell viewers how investigators might determine whether a driver had been using a cell phone before a crash or traffic infraction. Would investigators know a driver had been texting, even if he erased the texts or the phone was damaged in a crash?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Combs called Digital Forensics Corp. for an expert opinion. Brian Pishek, from our headquarters in Shaker Heights, Ohio, did a phone interview with Combs. We shot video of the interview in our offices and sent that to WSB, where their news team edited it into their June 29 report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
