Forensicon, a Chicago-based Computer Forensics and e-Discovery Firm, Celebrates Five Great Years in Business

On January 20, 2005, Forensicon celebrated its five-year anniversary with a cocktail reception at the Union League Club of Chicago. Amongst those in attendance were clients, vendors, employees, past and present, and partners in the industry. Despite the blustery and wintry conditions, many braved the elements to attend the event.

One of the few computer forensic and electronic discovery firms in Chicago, Forensicon’s primary focus is the preservation, recovery and analysis of electronic information. As specialists in computer forensics, Forensicon’s experts are highly trained to concentrate on receiving, imaging, tracking, processing and managing electronic evidence.

Forensicon was founded in January of 2000 by Lee Neubecker, President and CEO, but was originally named BuzzBoltMEDIA. Formerly a web management company, BuzzBoltMEDIA rode the wave of the dot come boom. However, as with many high technology companies at the turn of the century, it also saw the economic fizzle after 9/11. While many businesses failed, Mr. Neubecker had a brand new vision for his company, as most ingenious entrepreneurs do. He revitalized the business by transforming its core focus to a growing industry—computer forensics.

At the time, Chicago was sorely lacking in computer forensics experts. Mr. Neubecker’s formative training (MBA, with a focus on Technology) and vocational background as a product manager for Lycos provided him the experience he needed in the computer forensic industry. By modifying his strategy, Mr. Neubecker is able to see the steady expansion of his business, evident in the growing clientele and the addition of new employees. Consequently, plans are underway to move the current offices to a larger space to accommodate its growth. Using his innate technological skills, Mr. Neubecker was able to facilitate the progress of the business and utilize his experience to elevate the company to the successful computer forensic firm it is today. Forensicon has since developed into a steady corporation with a national clientele that includes major law firms and corporations.
