History
Founded in 2019, Gateway Forensics was born with the idea to put to use top of the line training and skills that had been acquired while serving in the United States Marine Corps as a Digital Forensic Examiner and Defensive Cyberspace Weapons Officer. During this time, members of Gateway Forensics traveled worldwide conducting network hunts and digital forensic investigations on highly sensitive and high profile networks.
Since our inception, Gateway Forensics has assisted hundreds of companies, attorneys and individuals with investigations and examinations, bringing the truth in the data to light and presenting our findings in a simple and easy to understand manner.
As of January 2024, Gateway Forensics was acquired by JFL Consulting, LLC, a well-respected, long-time consulting firm that provides a wide range of cyber investigation, analysis, and assessment services, as well as top-of-the-line hardware offerings far exceeding the competition offerings of both size, weight, and processing power.
