Diversified Risk Management , Inc. Partners with Kroll Ontrack To extend Computer
Forensic Service Offerings
Los Angeles, California, April 14, 2006 -- Diversified Risk Management,
Inc. (DRM) partners with Kroll Ontrack Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Kroll
Inc., (NYSE symbol KROL) to offer investigative data recovery, computer forensics
and other high-tech evidentiary products to DRM's international clientele.
DRM and Kroll Ontrack, Inc. are now a one-stop source for providing large-scale
electronic and paper-based evidence, data recovery services and software to
help law firms, financial institutions, corporations, government agencies, and
individuals quickly and cost-effectively recover, review, manage, and reproduce
difficult-to-retrieve information and documents.
Formerly known as ONTRACK Data International, Inc., Kroll Ontrack operates
as Kroll's "Technology Services Group," one of Kroll's four core competencies
dedicated to providing clients worldwide with practical, integrated solutions
to mitigate risk. It is staffed with more than 700 seasoned data engineers,
legal consultants, forensic investigative computer scientists, software developers
and other support staff.
DRM's clients will benefit from Kroll Ontrack's extensive experience in computer
forensic services to address critical workplace issues including fraud, embezzlement,
and harassment investigations in an efficient and timely manner.
DRM's Managing Partner and Executive Investigator Kent Perkins says, "Computer
forensics has become an extremely valuable tool in identifying and securing
crucial evidence in workplace criminal investigations. Without computer forensics,
many of our cases may not have been successfully prosecuted. Bringing aboard
Kroll Ontrack as our new strategic Partner affords us a dynamic, symbiotic relationship
with the strongest computer forensics providers in the world. It also gives
Kroll Ontrack instant access to our entire suite of specialized, employment-oriented
investigative resources."
George Ramos, also a Managing Partner and Executive Investigator, explained,
"Increasingly, the cases we investigate require recovery of deleted information
and to "mirror" hard drives for evidence. The demand has greatly increased
for electronic evidence and legally-performed technology business services as
an adjunct to DRM's corporate undercover investigation and risk mitigation services.
It requires great expertise to stay abreast of nearly 25 varieties of hardware
platform and media types, involving no less than 20 types of operating system
structures, nearly 50 software programs and at least 29 various programming
languages currently used in our clients' data systems. Computer forensics is
a dynamic, fluid industry, so it's comforting to know our Partners at Kroll
Ontrack are recognized in Federal and other courts not just as certified experts,
but as the industry's absolute leaders among electronic evidence experts."
Ramos continued, "We rely on our Partners to extend our range of services
by integrating complementary products and service solutions outside the primary
scope of our business focus. As major service providers to more than 500 of
the nation's leading companies, and the top labor and employment law attorneys
nationwide, we believe in structuring long-lasting partnerships that deliver
true value to our clients and friends."
On April 17, 2006, DRM will expand its service offerings in the area of electronic
discovery, paper discovery, and computer forensic solutions for complex litigation
and regulatory matters. With nearly 20 years of experience, its new partner
Kroll Ontrack is headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, and operates 13 offices
with five service labs located strategically around the world.
Kroll Ontrack is recognized as the "Number One" electronic discovery
provider by many major trade publications including AmLaw Tech (2002, 2003,
2004 & 2005), Law Office Computing (2004 & 2005), and Legal Assistant
Today (2005). It received Law Technology News' "Electronic Discovery System
