In an age of increasing digitalisation of personal and internal company data, IT security is gaining importance at a rapid pace. Virus scanners alone provide only a basic initial level of protection, especially since the majority of providers cooperate with the authorities in their respective countries and in this way infiltrate all data protection measures. The Cold War is not over; it has merely changed its appearance, as the cold cyberwar represents a constant threat to public security in the 21st century.
The academically trained specialists of Kurtz Investigations Halle examine and optimise the security of your system while taking into account the requirements and sensitivity of your data protection – and, of course, your specific wishes.
If you have fallen victim to an IT attack, our forensic experts will carry out criminalistics-based trace searches within your system. We cannot always guarantee success, as the outcome depends on the professionalism of the attacker. However, cases in which the hacker has made no detectable mistake are comparatively rare.
Naturally, we are just as happy to assist you if you have lost data from your system due to an accident. Whatever can be salvaged, we will salvage.
