IT & Cybercrime
In hacking, personal data breach, and digital forensics cases,
we provide specialist defense that combines technical expertise with legal analysis.
Overview
IT and cybercrime encompasses criminal matters arising in the digital environment — including violations of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, the Personal Information Protection Act, hacking, ransomware, internet fraud, online defamation and cyber insults, and distribution of obscene materials. Understanding the technical issues and determining the admissibility of digital evidence are the critical battlegrounds in these cases.
PYEONG AN deploys attorneys with hands-on experience in cyber investigation units and digital forensics to respond to IT crimes. We employ defense strategies unique to cybercrime — reviewing procedural defects in the collection and analysis of digital evidence, commissioning expert opinions, and securing technical rebuttal materials.
