IT Forensics in Stuttgart: facts instead of assumptions

Digital traces are fleeting after an incident. Even a single access can alter information, and log files overwrite themselves every minute. After that, no reliable statement remains possible. If you are looking for IT Forensics in Stuttgart, you want clarity above all: What happened, and which traces are still there? In a region shaped by the automotive industry and highly networked production, a cyber incident can reach far beyond individual IT systems.

That is why aramido acts carefully and focuses on the systems that lead to the cause of the incident. Following a proven approach, we secure digital traces before they are altered or overwritten. Thanks to our regional proximity, we are on site quickly when needed, whether in your data center, in development, in production or in your offices.

Structured analysis after an incident in Stuttgart

What is IT Forensics?

IT Forensics in Stuttgart clarifies, after a security incident, what happened and how it came about. To do so, we follow the digital traces left on servers, in networks and in the cloud. This creates a solid basis for the next steps: a report to the authorities, an insurance claim or the decision on further measures. For companies from the automotive and mechanical engineering region, whose value lies in development and data, this evidence is decisive.

Only findings that hold up count. That is why we document every acquisition, work with a chain of custody, and make the analysis steps verifiable. This keeps the results court-ready and usable for insurers and operational decisions. In the Stuttgart region, where the state capital, economic strength and state institutions meet, aramido is your expert for court-ready IT Forensics.

IT Forensics for the Stuttgart region

Stuttgart is one of the most important industrial and economic centers in Baden-Württemberg. Numerous companies from the automotive, mechanical and plant engineering industries are based in the city and its surrounding area, including international groups and global market leaders. Much of the value of this location lies in the know-how and intellectual property of these companies, and that is exactly what makes them an attractive target for attackers. If confidential information has been exfiltrated, it must be clarified which data is affected, how it could have leaked and which traces were left behind.

The digital supply of the greater Stuttgart area is closely linked to critical infrastructures in transport, logistics, industry and administration. If systems are manipulated or fail, the consequences can quickly extend far beyond the affected company. Thanks to our regional proximity, aramido is on site when needed, secures digital traces and evidence in a reliable manner and thereby makes the causes comprehensible.

Forensic disciplines for incidents in Stuttgart and the region

Which methods we use depends on the threat situation. Digital traces come from many sources: from persistent data, volatile artifacts and complex network flows.

For the analysis across all levels, we use specialized procedures. In Stuttgart, aramido looks exactly where the decisive clues lie.

Memory Forensics

Memory Forensics

We secure volatile data from working memory, reconstruct processes and thereby uncover active attacks.

Disk Forensics

Disk Forensics

Storage media and forensic images show which data and traces of use can be reconstructed.

Network Forensics

Network Forensics

By analyzing network traffic, we prove communication between compromised endpoints and data exfiltration.

Host Forensics

Host Forensics

System and file artifacts reveal which user activities took place and how the attack unfolded.

Malware Forensics

Malware Forensics

When examining malicious software, we recognize attack patterns and prevent reinfection.

Cloud Forensics

Cloud Forensics

In cloud environments, we clarify incidents of a tenant across multiple regions.

Frequently asked questions about IT Forensics in Stuttgart

Without a clarified cause, a security incident can recur in the same or a similar form. In addition, there are statutory reporting obligations to supervisory authorities, for example under GDPR or NIS-2. Cyber-risk insurers also require professional processing before granting coverage. Forensics provides the facts that make the damage, the cause and the scope comprehensible.
Data recovery restores lost files so that they can be used again. IT Forensics goes further: it delivers the evidentiary value and explains the cause of a particular situation. This includes, for example, patient zero, the point where a hacker group first intruded.
The chain of custody (Chain of Custody) documents completely where an item of evidence is located. It records who accessed the original media and when, and how copies were created. Only in this way does the securing of evidence remain admissible in court and the case traceable.
A backup records the state of the data, not the state of the system at the moment of the attack. Open network connections and the contents of working memory are not included. Moreover, attackers can nowadays encrypt or compromise the backup itself.
Often yes. If there is a suspicion of internal data access, we examine which systems were used, which data was read, copied or forwarded and when. We evaluate system logs, access rights, file metadata and network communication, and if necessary also reconstruct fragments of deleted files or chat histories. The resulting report is factual and evidence-based, without speculation. You can use it for an internal review, an insurance claim or a report to the authorities.
Incident Response stops an ongoing attack, limits the damage and restores operations. IT Forensics is used when the cause and the exact course of events need to be clarified. The two complement each other: while the incident is being contained, we already secure the traces for a later court-ready evaluation. During an ongoing attack, our aramido Response Team in Stuttgart is the right contact for fast help.
No, usually not. In live forensics, we secure volatile data while the systems are running. In post-mortem forensics, we analyze forensic copies in a controlled environment.
Usually we assess the situation within the first few hours, in Stuttgart on site if needed. How long the detailed analysis takes depends on the volume of data and the complexity of the case. It can take from a few days up to several weeks.
The price depends on the incident, the number of affected systems and the required analysis effort. In an initial conversation we identify the essential requirements and provide you with a transparent cost estimate.
Yes. We secure evidence in accordance with ISO/IEC 27037 and maintain an unbroken chain of custody. The expert report is structured so that courts, public prosecutors, lawyers and insurers can use it. A report that is meant to withstand such scrutiny must be created cleanly and in a traceable manner from the outset.
In addition to the city of Stuttgart, we support companies throughout the region, including Ludwigsburg, Esslingen, Böblingen, Sindelfingen, Waiblingen, Leonberg, Filderstadt, Göppingen, Nürtingen, Kirchheim unter Teck, Backnang, Bietigheim-Bissingen, Vaihingen an der Enz, Herrenberg and Calw. Depending on the case, remotely and on site when needed. We are also available in the neighboring regions of Karlsruhe, Freiburg and Frankfurt.

Your contribution to IT Forensics

After an incident at your Stuttgart company, it is important to act quickly and correctly. If the attack is still active, our Incident Response in Stuttgart first stops the spread. Whether traces can still be used later is usually decided in the first few minutes. So involve us early and leave your systems unchanged until they are secured.

Your knowledge of the systems and infrastructure complements our specialist expertise, so that we can carry out digital forensics together. In accordance with the order of volatility, we define what is secured and in which order. Using your access, forensic copies are created, which we then examine.

How you preserve your traces

  • Report the incident early
  • Leave affected systems unchanged
  • Name the systems you consider affected
