The case
A dawn raid by a regulator is nearly always unexpected. However, regulators and law enforcement agencies such as the FIOD, KSA and ACM have made all the necessary preparations, have a plan in place, and in many cases know exactly what they are looking for. Not cooperating in a dawn raid is simply not an option.
The Challenge
The requests from regulators and law enforcement often come in the form of a list with specific questions, requirements and tight deadlines. Not meeting these requests is in most cases not an option. The biggest problem is that your company and business processes are not designed and prepared for these requests. In order to meet these requirements as smoothly as possible and within the deadline, preparation is crucial. In addition, handing over a set of data is usually not sufficient, you also need to make clear how it came about (‘evidence trail’).
The Solution
We help your organization with these unexpected visits, both to be prepared for this as well as during and after the raid. Our specialists have years of experience in intelligence and law enforcement and are familiar with their working methods and are therefore able to assist you pragmatically in case of an incident. We ensure that all data taken by regulators is also forensically collected for you and can be analysed for your purpose. It is possible to know, within a few hours, where the most important evidence for regulators is stored, an internal investigation can start and the (legal) defence can begin. We use the latest techniques in the field of forensic investigations and eDiscovery. We speak the language of the regulator, law enforcement, customer and lawyer and thus give you a head start in the process.
