Forensic Spyware and Malware Detection

Spyware and malware—including undetectable zero‑day exploits (attacks that have been designed not to be detected by current anti-virus tools)—can now be purchased easily online. Once installed on a device, they can grant attackers access to all your data. These malicious programs often arrive via infected images or files sent through Bluetooth, email or messages, or through a malicious link sent by SMS. Because many of these attacks exploit unknown software vulnerabilities, they frequently bypass conventional antivirus tools.

Legal & Privacy Implications

Using a mobile device as a tracking or eavesdropping tool without the user and/or owners express of implied knowledge contravenes multiple Australian state and federal laws, including Privacy, Telecommunications Interception and Surveillance Devices Acts. Such illegal activities are difficult to detect and can have serious consequences.

Why Choose NSI Global

NSI Global’s Digital Forensic Unit uses specialised, restricted‑access equipment to conduct forensic spyware and malware analysis. Our experts forensically analyse device behaviour to detect spyware—particularly on mobile phones—and identify how malware entered a device (for example via a missed messaging call or infected link). We can identify zero‑day attacks and recover data deleted by malware. Our team also performs Technical Surveillance Counter Measures (TSCM) bug sweeps to ensure your premises remain free from covert listening devices. By combining these services, our risk advisory specialists help identify and fortify security weaknesses.

NSI Global’s forensic investigators have been uncovering hidden spyware, malware and zero‑day exploits for more than 20 years.

We provide cryptographically hashed digital forensic reports suitable for courts, work closely with lawyers and barristers, and can serve as expert witnesses.

Additionally, we offer related investigatory services—from corporate investigations to due diligence—that support clients in managing broader risks.

You should never use general data‑recovery software after a malware incident; our secure, advanced service gives you the best chance of data recovery and preserves evidence

Improperly trained investigators can cause further damage or miss critical evidence. Our international reach keeps us abreast of the latest surveillance threats, and we deploy cutting‑edge countermeasures to protect our clients.

If you suspect your devices or premises have been compromised, contact us immediately! However, please leave the suspected device behind and call from an associate’s device outside of the area of concern to prevent further communications being compromised.

Where possible, we can arrange an appointment for a confidential discussion at our radio-shielded, secure office in Sydney’s Olympic Park. We have 24-hour surveillance and have ensured that our property has fortified against bugging technology to secure your privacy.

By choosing NSI Global, you’re partnering with specialists who combine decades of digital forensics experience with robust legal and technical expertise. We’ll help you detect, analyse and mitigate spyware and malware threats while protecting your data and privacy.
