Sherlock Forensics provides digital forensics services in Surrey, BC, including computer forensics, mobile device analysis, incident response and expert witness testimony.

Surrey is one of the fastest-growing cities in British Columbia, home to a diverse economy spanning logistics, healthcare, education and technology. With this growth comes increased exposure to cyber threats, from ransomware targeting Surrey's distribution and warehousing companies to employee disputes requiring forensic evidence at law firms along King George Boulevard. Sherlock Forensics provides on-site forensic collection across Surrey's business districts, from Whalley to South Surrey, with evidence processed at our Burnaby forensic laboratory.
Surrey Digital Forensics
Surrey's population surpasses 600,000, making it the second-largest city in BC. That scale means a high volume of civil litigation, employment disputes, intellectual property theft cases and criminal investigations that require forensic evidence. Law firms and businesses across Surrey rely on qualified digital forensics examiners who can collect, analyze and present electronic evidence that holds up in court.
Surrey is home to the RCMP's E Division headquarters, one of the largest RCMP detachments in Canada. Our forensic services complement law enforcement investigations when private parties need independent digital evidence analysis for civil matters, corporate investigations or insurance claims that fall outside the scope of police resources.
Surrey's logistics corridor along the Highway 99 and Highway 1 interchange handles billions in cross-border trade. Transportation companies, freight brokers and customs agents face targeted phishing campaigns, business email compromise and ransomware attacks. We understand the operational urgency these industries face and tailor our forensic response to minimize downtime.

Proper evidence collection at the source maintains chain of custody and prevents spoliation challenges during litigation. Our examiners arrive with write-blockers, forensic imaging hardware and secure transport containers.
Surrey cases may be heard at Surrey Provincial Court, BC Supreme Court in New Westminster or the Federal Court. Ryan Purita provides expert witness testimony in all British Columbia courts and prepares forensic reports that meet Canadian evidentiary standards.
Surrey businesses must comply with BC's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) and federal PIPEDA. After a breach, proper forensic investigation and documentation are essential for regulatory notification and demonstrating due diligence to the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner.
For internal penetration testing, we ship a pre-configured ShadowTap device to your Surrey location. Connect it to your network and our team conducts a full internal assessment through an encrypted tunnel, testing Active Directory, lateral movement and privilege escalation paths.
