Zombie Cases

ZOMBIE CASES - SPECIALIST DIGITAL INVESTIGATIONS

Cases that resist resolution.

Intelligence-led investigations across IP abuse, brand harm, and persistent online activity. Calm output. Hard problems.

Bounded scope
Purpose-built investigations
Disciplined precision

What you get

Clear linkage, defensible outputs, and a bounded path to resolution — built for decision-makers, legal teams, and brand functions.

Clarity from fragmented signals

Structured analysis when indicators are weak, scattered, or deliberately obscured.

Linkage across platforms and time

Patterns and relationships that hold up despite churn, takedowns, and tactical change.

Reporting that stands up later

Outputs designed for scrutiny: concise, evidenced, and decision-ready.

Bounded scope and closure criteria

Hard edges, clear success measures, and a plan that ends the loop.

Typical work

  • Persistent impersonation, fraud and brand abuse
  • IP infringement and online marketplace abuse (including counterfeiting where relevant)
  • Attribution and linkage across platforms and time
  • Coordinated or repeat activity that survives takedowns
  • Complex cases where signals won’t join up

Method

A simple loop: define the question, gather signal, build linkages, report clearly.

01

Define the question

What decision needs to be made, and what “closure” means.

02

Gather signal

Cross-source collection with provenance and time-awareness.

03

Build linkages

Patterns, relationships, confidence levels, and what would change them.

04

Report

Actionable intelligence for legal, brand, or leadership decisions.

Bespoke solutions

Where required, investigations are supported by purpose-built workflows and in-house developed tooling to surface signal, reduce noise, and handle edge cases that do not fit off-the-shelf platforms.

For organisations seeking to develop internal capability, we also support the design and build of intelligence-led investigation labs.

If you’re dealing with a case that won’t close, we help you narrow the question, surface signal, and deliver actionable intelligence that supports clear decisions.
