Social media has been a subject of much speculation in the media over the past few months regarding the safety and privacy of information. EVEN IF YOU THINK YOU’VE TICKED A BOX, THINK AGAIN!

Social media is a powerful tool that can be of great value in the field of law and forensic investigations. Our international expert trainer, Karhrman Ziegenbein (CEO of Toonari) has been utilising effective social media intelligence techniques and tools in court cases in the U.S. successfully for many years.
