CYBERDETECTIVES AMERICAINS
29/03/2006Les cyberdétectives sont compétents en sécurité informatique, en protection de données sensibles et en recherche sur le net. Apparus aux Etats-Unis, ils devraient atteindre la France très bientôt et participer de manière importante à l'essor de l'intelligence économique sur le web.
NEW YORK (FORTUNE Small Business Magazine) - When the CEO of a small San Diego publishing company started receiving threatening e-mails from an anonymous address, he had a pretty good idea that someone in the company's IT department was involved. The CEO called his lawyers, who in turn called Peter Garza, a computer forensics expert and founder of EvidentData, an investigative firm in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif.
After reading the e-mails, Garza examined the CEO's hard drive and found that spyware -- software that monitors a computer user's web-surfing habits -- had been surreptitiously loaded. Garza and a team of investigators told the CEO's employees they were conducting a security audit and made copies of all hard drives. They also hooked up a device that put the network under constant surveillance. Within a few weeks Garza determined that the IT director and several others at the company were helping a fellow employee send the threatening e-mails.
"Peter even found a Google (Research) search one of the IT people had done, using the name of the spyware and the word 'legal,' which took them to the spyware's legal disclaimer," says the CEO, a clean-cut man in his early 40s who asked that he not be identified. "They knew it was wrong, and they did it anyway." The guilty parties were promptly fired.
EvidentData is part of an elite but growing group of forensic IT firms staffed with Digital Age sleuths skilled at detecting computer-related misdeeds. IDC, a market research firm in Framingham, Mass., projects that the market for IT forensics will increase sharply, from $310 million in 2005 to $634 million by 2009. Purdue University started a cyber-forensics program two years ago with two classes; today there are five, all with waiting lists, says Marc Rogers, a former detective in the Winnipeg Police Department's computer crimes unit, who chairs the program. "Companies hire our students before they even graduate," he says...
