“The computer often knows more than we'd like it to about what we've been up to.”

Nigel Carson
People Nigel Carson
Nigel started his career as a forensic investigator during his time in the computer based evidence division of NSW Police where he honed skills that would further develop within cyber security and forensic divisions of large organisations and professional services firms including Coca Cola Amatil and KPMG.

Nigel's experience and passion to pursue the facts and solve client problems has seen him sought after to work on some of the biggest and most notable technology cases in the Asia-Pacific.

With over 25 years’ experience spanning computer security, law enforcement and corporate investigations, Nigel’s depth of experience warrants consideration when clients select experts or seek technology advice.
Nigel is particuarly strong in technology investigations where expert reports and testimony may be required. Computer activity requires careful interpretation and the provenance of a critical document can make or break a case.
