Asset Tracking Control & COC (Chain of Custody)

Tracking data assets is part of our everyday process. Our clients demand to know where their data assets are from the moment they leave their facility to the moment they return. Further, they are required to know where they have been and who has had access to them while outside of their possession. The systems we employ are industry leading and over time have developed into a robust asset tracking system that can be employed for full audit traceability.  Whether it’s a thumb drive being picked up for computer forensics work, or a data center that is moving from one country to another, our robust asset tracking system monitors every step. We’ve handled everything, from receiving something via FedEx, to hiring private Jets and organizing the movement of physical and data assets between continents.
