Copier forensics by Strathclyde ForensicsPhotocopiers (also known as Xerox machines, after the company who initially patented them) have been for some decades the main way of copying documents, diagrams and even photos. The method was called xerography (from the Greek word that means dry printing).

 

However, today's copiers work on a totally different level. Being digitised in every aspect, copiers scan a document (or bulk of documents) and save them in a hard disk as image files. Then the copier can produce as many hard copies as required, like a laser printer

 

The most advanced copiers keep information like the user name from which a document originated, the computer that sent it, the number of copies printed, time and date stamps etc. All these pieces of information can be vital to control the outflow of information (especially classified/privileged info).

 

Many companies lease (rent) multi copier machines for a period of time. What you may not realise is that a wealth of your sensitive details is left available for whoever gets hold of the copier's magnetic media.

 

If you need an investigation and do not have the experience in accessing this information, or if your copier has broken down, and you need to retrieve important information, Strathclyde Forensics can provide you with the support you need.
