Forensic Audio & Video Authentication Services
What We Do
In forensic audio and video authentication, we use advanced techniques to scrutinize recordings for signs of manipulation, enhancement, or alterations. Our experts employ a range of digital tools and methods to ensure that the evidence is both reliable and trustworthy. Through this process, we can authenticate recordings, identify sources, improve the quality of unclear recordings, and detect signs of tampering.
Our Forensic Audio & Video Authentication Services Include
Audio Authentication & Analysis
Voice Verification
We analyze audio recordings to determine the identity of speakers, verifying whether the voice in the recording matches known samples. This process is crucial in cases such as extortion, blackmail, or anonymous threats where the voice identity is essential.
Tampering Detection
We check audio recordings for signs of tampering, such as cut-and-paste edits, insertion of false sounds, or other alterations that may have been made to distort the original content. This can include analyzing the audio waveform to detect any irregularities or inconsistencies that point to manipulation.
Enhancement & Noise Reduction
If the recording quality is poor, we can enhance the audio by reducing background noise, boosting low volumes, or clarifying muffled speech. Our goal is to make the audio clearer without altering the integrity of the original content.
Echo & Reverb Analysis
In some cases, environmental factors (e.g., reverb, echo) can distort audio recordings. Our experts can analyze and minimize these distortions to make the speech or sounds more intelligible while ensuring the authenticity of the recording.
Video Authentication & Analysis
Video Integrity Verificatio
We analyze the video file to verify its authenticity, checking for signs of editing, splicing, or frame manipulation. This includes examining metadata, video frame analysis, and identifying any inconsistencies or irregularities that suggest tampering.
Frame Analysis
Using specialized software, we break down the video into individual frames to detect alterations, such as the insertion or removal of objects, people, or events. This service is crucial in cases where evidence may have been modified to mislead investigations or court cases.
Resolution Enhancement
When videos are of low resolution or unclear, we work on enhancing the visual quality of the footage while preserving the authenticity of the original material. Our goal is to ensure that crucial details, such as faces, license plates, or specific actions, are clearly visible and legible.
Timestamp Verification
We verify the accuracy of timestamps on video files to ensure they are not falsified. This can include checking for inconsistencies in metadata or visual clues that could suggest the video was recorded at a different time or location than originally stated.
Audio-Video Synchronization
In some instances, audio and video may become desynchronized, leading to misinterpretation of the content. We analyze the synchronization of the audio and video tracks to ensure that they are in sync, allowing for accurate analysis of the visual and auditory components of the recording.
Speaker Identification in Audio & Video Recordings
If a recording contains multiple speakers or individuals, we can perform speaker identification to determine who is speaking at any given moment. This is valuable in cases where the identities of speakers need to be verified for legal or investigative purposes.
Chain of Custody Verification
One of the most important aspects of forensic audio and video analysis is ensuring that the evidence has not been tampered with since it was first collected. We verify the chain of custody for the audio/video files to confirm their authenticity, ensuring that the recordings presented in court or during investigations are the same as those collected at the scene.

If needed, our forensic audio and video experts are available to provide court-ready testimony. We explain the findings from our analysis in clear, understandable terms, helping judges, juries, and legal professionals comprehend the technical aspects of our work.
