Most corporate crimes occur from the “inside” and are committed by disgruntled current or former employees. The most common crimes are embezzlement, theft of goods (servers, computers, other kinds of equipment) or unauthorized use of services (free Fedex anyone?) as well as abuse of company credit cards and expense accounts. Sale or compromise of trade secrets by espionage or the sabotage of corporate infrastructure or products are also regular occurrences in today’s corporate environment.
G2’s experienced personnel conduct not only forensic accounting and forensic auditing of electronic systems, but are also experienced at conducting undercover sting operations along with discreet investigations to quickly determine who, what, when, where, how and, ultimately, why. Discovering that a low-paid worker with access to a compromised area just bought a $500,000 house would be an example of how quickly an investigation can narrow down.
Discretion is essential not only to stock valuations and insurance premiums but also to a range of reporting requirements under Sarbanes-Oxley and a number of other new rules and regulations.
Very often, a corporate crime investigation will give G2 insight into how an organization can operate not only more securely but more efficiently. The client winds up getting a thorough and highly professional “consulting” review as well as a successful resolution to its criminal problem.
