Improving Analytical Techniques: The Spreadsheet and Beyond
February 11

Data Analytics set the foundation for the scope of the investigation and can drive the prioritization of the investigation. By establishing the foundation of the investigation through the use of data analytics, enough information can be gathered to initiate the investigative steps needed to corroborate and/or exculpate the predicate established by the data and the allegation. Further, it is essential to a successful investigation to organize comprehensive data in an efficient way throughout the course of an investigation, especially as additional parties/ entities are identified, and new analysis is needed to further corroborate the links. This presentation will guide you through the steps necessary to develop a complex investigation, from the spreadsheet and beyond.
