Forensic Spyware and Malware Detection

If you suspect that spyware or malware has potentially given an attacker access to all the data on your device, NSI Global’s Digital Forensic Unit’s spyware forensics and analysis service should be called immediately. This is because, alarmingly, spyware and malware, including zero-day attacks (attacks that have been designed not to be detected by current anti-virus tools) are easily purchased online now. As a result, they are a major threat to people and organisations’ privacies. With our spyware and malware detection, we can find the offending software and identify how it was installed, such as through an infected image or file that is sent to the device via Bluetooth, email or as a message, or by an infected link that is sent via SMS.

A device that is used as a tracking or eavesdropping tool without the express or implied knowledge of the user/owner of the device is in breach of numerous laws. However, these illegal acts can be difficult to detect.

As digital forensic examiners, NSI Global’s Digital Forensic Unit utilises specialised restricted access equipment to conduct a Digital Forensic Spyware and Malware Analysis. Our specialists forensically analyse the behaviour of suspected devices, with a special interest in detecting spyware on mobile phones. We examine devices for indicators of known spyware and malware, and for anomalies that may point to previously undocumented exploits. No examination can guarantee that every threat will be found; our reports state what was examined, the methods used and the limits of the findings.

For a more comprehensive counter surveillance approach, we also have digital forensic experts who can retrieve data that has been deleted as a result of spyware or malware. We also conduct detailed TSCM bug sweeps to ensure that your premises are not bugged, keeping your private discussions private. Using a combination of these services, our risk advisory team can help you identify and protect security weaknesses, preventing future attacks and your organisation being compromised.

As experienced malware and spyware forensic investigators, our team have been using law-enforcement forensic platforms and methods to detect and counter malware and spyware for decades.

As part of our spyware and malware investigation, we can provide evidence as to whether an exploit is present or has been previously deleted from the device. We can also investigate how the software entered the device. For instance, spyware trackers for mobile phones can be installed via a missed WhatsApp call or an infected link in a message.

These types of software allow a third party to surveil and track the use of your device and/or provide remote access to the device itself and any private data on its memory.

If our digital forensic experts detect spyware, malware or zero-day, we can provide detailed digital forensic reports that are supported by hash verification, so the integrity of the evidence can be checked.. We work alongside your legal advisers. Our lead examiner has given expert evidence in Australian courts.

Trusting an improperly trained or inexperienced malware investigator to handle spyware or malware can be just as dangerous as the software itself. When you are looking to detect mobile phone spyware in Dubai and across the world, you need the experts.

If you suspect your devices or premises have been compromised, contact us immediately! However, please leave the suspected device behind and call from an associate’s device outside of the area of concern to prevent further communications being compromised.

Where possible, we can arrange an appointment for a confidential discussion.

Please Note: NSI Global will not provide services to any individual or entity that is the subject of a law enforcement investigation.
