Computer Forensics 

Most organizations rely on networked information processing systems as the lifeblood of their operations. Most professionals are also aware of the vulnerability of those systems to unauthorized intrusion and of the damages intrusions can inflict. Whether an intrusion is conducted by a skilled outsider with criminal intent, an adolescent hacker seeking a thrill, or a disgruntled employee bent on revenge or espionage, the potential risks to the organization are enormous. ManTech has the specialized skills and operational experience to offer its clients improved network security, to determine the progress of an attack, and to conduct the analysis necessary to identify and prosecute the attacker.

ManTech's team of cyber security experts develop and employ some of the most advanced cyber security techniques, processes, methodologies and tools available to protect, secure and exploit information. We utilize a state-of-the-art forensics and counter-intrusion laboratory to simulate and model difference scenarios for our DOD, Intelligence, Homeland Security, State Department, and related customers.

Computer forensics is the art and science of identifying, locating, preserving, and extracting digital data from a computer system for a specific purpose, such as to provide evidence of a crime or to confirm a violation of corporate policies. Because computers retain more data than most people realize, a skilled examiner, using special tools and protocols, can often reconstruct the activities of a computer user or intruder and extract evidence of the intruder’s actions. ManTech’s computer forensic services include:

  • Computer crime response and recovery operations
  • Forensic media analysis
  • Evidentiary chain-of-custody support
  • Digital encryption/decryption analysis
  • Secure digital authentication support
  • Computer or network intruder profiling
  • Technical investigation and witness interview support

    Counter-Intrusion Support

    Counter-intrusion support services are directed at two fundamental problems: minimizing client vulnerability to computer intrusion and maximizing the ability to detect, deter, neutralize, and identify the attacker in the event of an intrusion. ManTech focuses on preventive design measures that also facilitate the client’s ability to detect and deter an attack. Examples of our counter-intrusion support services include:

    • Network threat identification and risk assessment
    • Secure network design and testing
    • Laboratory analysis of client software architectures and applications
    • Analysis and simulation of defensive network architectures and operations
    • Development of counter-virus and secure network approaches
    • Network monitoring and intrusion detection
    • Design, implementation, and testing of secure digital authentication systems

    Penetration Testing and Network Simulation

    ManTech has a state-of-the-art forensics and counter-intrusion laboratory to support our clients in developing and maintaining secure networks and systems. The laboratory is fully tooled to permit in-depth penetration testing of client systems and networks from a highly secure environment. Its design also permits offsite simulation of a client network for penetration testing without risk to the client’s ongoing operations. Our laboratory features:

    • Full compliance with DCID 1-21 security standards
    • Ability to conduct multiple simultaneous digital analyses or investigations
    • Ability to conduct multiple simultaneous penetration or intrusion testing operations
    • Hardware and software that can be readily re-configured to simulate client networks
    • Support for all commonly available hardware platforms, operating systems, and networking software
    • Support for testing multiple network firewall technologies and approaches
    • Full suite of analytical tools and "hacker" technologies
    • Capability to conduct detailed media analysis and data recovery

    Skilled, Experienced Analysts

    Essential to conducting effective computer forensics and counter-intrusion analysis is the skill and experience of the analysts. Our technical experts average over 15 years of direct experience in computer forensics and information operations. They offer a formidable mix of experience in military and civilian counter-intelligence, criminal investigation, and network security engineering. We know ManTech can provide world-class client support in these difficult technical regimes because our people "have done it before."

    Computer Forensics and Counter-Intrusion Training

    Most organizations that depend on secure, reliable networks want to operate those networks with minimal outside technical support. To assist in accomplishing this objective, ManTech offers training opportunities in the disciplines and techniques that we use to provide premium computer forensics and counter-intrusion support.

    ManTech uses a unique team of network engineers, security engineers, software developers and intelligence professionals dedicated to advancing the science of cyber forensics, which ManTech defines as a lawful method of monitoring and analyzing network traffic. ManTech's offerings are based upon a collection of patent pending technologies that model what users do on IT networks. Based upon six years of research and development, ManTech has built a common vernacular for describing the actions of users of IT and how those actions manifest on a network. It is this common language that enables analysts to rapidly determine who did what when and where.
