Corporate Liability
Our Corporate Internal Investigations will allow you to quickly address allegations of corporate misconduct and avoid indictment and civil exposure.
We provide detailed analysis of the legal and practical issues inherent in internal investigations, including: corporate and individual criminal liability; duties of officers and directors; conducting witness interviews; reviewing and tracking documents; grand jury and other government methods of gathering evidence; supervising experts and investigators; parallel proceedings; the attorney-client privilege and the work product doctrine; reports of investigation and their confidentiality; and persuading prosecutors not to indict.
Due Diligence
Strategic Security Corp.’s Due Diligence Investigation is a process of research and analysis that takes place in advance of an acquisition, investment, business partnership or bank loan in order to determine the value of the subject of the due diligence or whether there are any “‘skeletons in the closet’.”
We investigate the background and principals of the target company. Professional reports from accountants and solicitors are frequently included.
Certified Fraud Examiners
Strategic Security Corp.’s Certified Fraud Examiners provide three services involving investigation and examination techniques. They are financial auditing, fraud auditing and forensic accounting.The differences lie in the objectives of the engagements, the execution of the procedures, and the parties to whom the auditors are obligated.

Strategic Security Corp. works with you to establish internal controls that will prevent and detect it. We will help you recognize and understand the opportunities, methods, and varieties of embezzlement. Utilizing practical tools for detecting and combating embezzlement we offer advice on avoiding lawsuits by practicing preventive law. We will show you how to strengthen internal controls and security to mitigate risk.

Following an electronic sweep, Strategic Security Corp. provides you with a detailed report outlining the specific technical measures used during the sweep, along with the specific findings of the investigators. With the results of each search, we provide recommendations for follow-up or corrective action to be taken by the client to further secure its facility against electronic intrusion.
