Corporate Governance & Digital Forensics: Bridging the gap
Rahul Dwivedi, CEO, Pelorous Technologies Pvt. Ltd.
In business, if there’s a term that’s often overused and rarely understood, it is Corporate Governance. It is hardly the hornet’s nest some make it out to be. If one has to put it in simple terms, Corporate Governance is all about creating a good and foolproof system in the workplace. After all, where there is no system, there is no safety! This stands true for all companies and even more for places like Pelorus Technologies.
As an organisation dealing with ultra-sensitive data of big-ticket agencies, intricate processes, and impeccable practice are two uncompromisable pillars in the company ethos. It’s not just about professionalism and confidentiality, it is about the values that define the identity of a company. This is why Corporate Governance forms the core of any digital forensics firm. Once you have a robust Corporate Governance policy, all other aspects of the system automatically fall into place.
Pelorus Technologies, the workforce is comprehensively scanned for their ethical strength, truth perception, and integrity. Dealing with sensitive information related to economic crime necessitates a ‘zero tolerance’ approach in the organisational functioning. An end-to-end microscopic process is in place to ensure even the smallest piece of data is not leaked from the office’s hierarchical chain, may it be the topmost position or a novice starting.
Being part of important and confidential government projects, we also analyse our employees in terms of ethical behaviour, commitment towards national interest, and aptitude for serving the cause with complete honesty. The highest standards of ethics and morals are a must to be part of the team working on these projects. One needs to maintain secrecy during their tenure, and when they leave the organisation.
Due to regular assignments with high-security agencies like forensics labs, anti-terrorist squads, and various crime bureaus, Pelorus Technologies also employs in-depth processes to ascertain any potential employee’s virtue and values. The reason behind such watertight and intensive processes in all aspects of our operations is the line of work we are in that serves no place for errors and mishaps.
At the end of the day, for a digital forensics firm, confidentiality, privacy, and professionalism are inseparable parts of the business. Such companies are only as strong as their foundations, and for strong foundations, near-perfect Corporate Governance is key!
While Pelorus Technologies prides itself on having the finest standards and practices in the industry, we are also constantly evolving as technology takes big leaps with each new development. Tech may change, and interfaces may upgrade, but at the very root of our ethos lies a rock solid Corporate Governance policy.
