Drone Forensics

Flight logs, media and controller data from drones and their apps.

Drones and their controllers, apps and memory cards can record flight paths, times, settings and captured media. We acquire and analyse this data to help establish where and when a drone was flown and what it recorded.

Who it’s for

  • Investigations involving unauthorised or incident flights
  • Insurers and legal teams
  • Security and estate managers

What we examine

  • Flight logs and telemetry, where stored
  • Photos and video on memory cards
  • Controller and companion-app data
  • Linked accounts, where accessible

How an engagement works

Intake

The drone, controller, batteries and cards are received and documented.

Acquisition

Storage and app data are acquired and hashed.

Analysis

Flight data and media are correlated into a timeline.

Reporting

Findings with maps or timelines where the data supports them.

What you need

  • Authority to examine the drone and related devices
  • All available components (drone, controller, memory cards, the phone used to fly it)

What you receive

  • Acquisition record
  • Flight and media timeline
  • Findings report

Limitations. What is recorded differs by manufacturer, model and settings. Some data exists only in the operator’s app or account.
