Human Resources Compliance

Network forensics allows you to gather the digital evidence for HR compliance investigations.

Is something wrong happening on your network? You suspect that an employee is violating a company policy. Perhaps this person is harassing other employees on IM or leaking information to competitors through Webmail. Perhaps the person is accessing porn sites or running a file-sharing service on a company server. Or perhaps the person is sharing confidential customer information in violation of industry standards such as Gramm-Leach-Bliley or HIPAA.

Your organization has policies about this—and your industry may have regulations that pertain as well. You need to ensure these policies are complied with—or you need to collect evidence to take action when they’re not.

When you suspect something is wrong, do you have the means to conduct an investigation? How do you collect the right digital evidence when there are so many channels of communication (email, Web mail, IM, etc.), and so many places to look on your network?

Time for Network Forensics. With a TimeLine network recorder, network traffic is collected 24/7 and stored in a common, searchable format-email, IM, VoIP, FTP, HTMP, peer-to-peer protocols or anything else. OmniPeek Enterprise then provides access to those terabytes of information with high-level analysis.
