BIA was founded by professionals in
the areas of Computer Forensics, Information Technology,
e-Discovery and the Law - bridging the gap between computer
forensics and the emerging electronic data discovery industry.
Their rapid evolution from a data collections company to a
single-source information management corporation is credited to
their in-depth understanding and creation of full-scope services as
applied to the Electronically Stored Information (ESI) model. Their
