Three situations we hear

Which one sounds like you?

Something has happened

Breach response, forensic investigation, departing employee forensic scans, insider threat review, expert witness testimony. You will speak to an investigator within 4 business hours.

Keep us protected

Our 5-stage NDF Protection Program builds your defences and keeps them current. Dark web monitoring, ongoing oversight, incident response retainers, and expert reports structured to meet regulatory expectations.

Prove we did the right thing

Tabletop exercises, executive roundtables, security assessments, and training. The documentation and evidence that demonstrates you took reasonable steps, before anyone asks.

Why NDF

The forensic investigator's advantage

More than 190 engagements since 2018 across litigation, breach response, insider threats, and foreign criminal activity. What we learn about attacker methods, we apply directly to protecting your workplace. Matt O'Kane wrote and ran the Cyber Resilience and Information Assurance Principles curriculum at the Australian Defence Force Academy, and co-writes cybersecurity and software project courses at UNSW Business School.

Findings stress-tested before delivery

Our IRIS Challenge methodology applies adversarial review to findings before they reach you. The same rigour that holds up in court, applied to every engagement.

Breach classification you can stand behind

When a breach happens, we classify exactly which personal information was exposed. All forensic analysis performed in Australia on Australian infrastructure. You know precisely what to report.

Fixed quote before any work begins.

No open-ended hourly estimates, no surprise invoices. You know what it costs before we start.

Technology

Custom AI pipeline. Onshore. Secure.

Our AI pipeline processes forensic evidence at machine speed with human oversight. We built it in Australia. It runs on Australian infrastructure. AI assists with processing and classification. We write all findings, analysis, and reports.

Days, not weeks

Breach classification and email review that would take weeks manually, completed in days. You get answers faster, and it costs less.

Defending against AI threats

Attackers use AI to write phishing emails, generate deepfakes, and automate social engineering. We help you recognise and defend against AI-powered threats from outside and inside your organisation.

All forensic analysis stays in Australia

Australian-built AI pipeline running on Australian infrastructure. Your sensitive data is processed onshore by Australian-based practitioners. No offshore outsourcing.

We handle it so you don't have to
