RF Shielding for Digital Forensics

One team, from concept to closeout

Don’t gamble with chain of custody, acquisition integrity, or lab uptime by settling for “good enough” RF/EMI shielding. We deliver end-to-end shielding design and implementation support so your digital forensics lab stays controlled, compliant, and resistant to interference that can disrupt imaging, analysis, and secure handling of devices.

Fewer Change Orders, Smoother Construction
Our digital-forensics shielding documents are built for the field—clear details, coordinated drawings, and practical install guidance. That means fewer surprises, less rework, and tighter schedule control.
Code-Ready, Inspection-Ready Deliverables
We produce calculations, drawings, and design packages aligned with applicable standards and agency requirements. The result: a cleaner path to approvals, verification testing, and final turnover.
Faster Turnarounds for New Labs and Retrofits
Whether you’re building a new digital forensics suite or upgrading an existing room, we move quickly from site info to a complete shielding package—ready for procurement, installation, and commissioning.
Coordination for MEP, Doors, and Penetrations
Shielding succeeds or fails at the details—HVAC, electrical, conduit, data cabling, security devices, pass-throughs, and door frames. We coordinate these early so your RF barrier stays continuous, secure, and effective.

Digital Forensics RF/EMI Shielding FAQ

Because interference can disrupt imaging/extractions, introduce errors, or create inconsistent results—especially with sensitive equipment, wireless signals, and high-noise building systems nearby. Shielding helps keep the lab environment stable and controlled.

RF shielding focuses on blocking radio signals (cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, two-way radio). EMI shielding is broader and includes electrical noise from power, motors, lighting, elevators, and IT gear that can interfere with electronics. Most digital forensics spaces benefit from both.

Common targets:

  • Device intake and triage
  • Imaging/extraction rooms
  • Secure exam rooms (mobile devices, laptops, IoT)
  • Evidence storage (especially devices that must stay isolated)
  • Interview rooms where electronics are present or prohibited signals matter

A “Faraday room” is basically a fully enclosed RF shielded room (walls, ceiling, floor) with shielded penetrations and doors—so yes, that’s a common approach for digital forensics when strong isolation is required.

If designed correctly, yes—shielding reduces or eliminates outside signals. If you need internal connectivity, you plan for it: filtered penetrations, controlled internal networks, and intentional signal management (not accidental leaks).

That’s the whole game. We design and coordinate:

  • Shielded doors and frames
  • Waveguides / honeycomb vents for HVAC
  • Filtered power (and bonding/grounding)
  • Fiber/data penetrations, conduit bonding, and proper gasketing
  • Pass-throughs and access panels that maintain continuity

Attenuation is how much the room reduces signal strength across frequencies. The “right” target depends on your threat model (cell/Wi-Fi isolation vs. broad-spectrum control), your environment, and what you’re protecting. We help set realistic performance requirements before anything gets built.

Yes. Retrofits are common. The key is surveying the existing construction and MEP conditions early, then designing around constraints like door openings, existing ductwork, and cable paths.

Best starting set:

  • Room dimensions and location (plans if you have them)
  • Intended use (imaging, mobile device isolation, storage, etc.)
  • Required performance goals (or the constraints you’re trying to solve)
  • Known penetrations (HVAC, power, data, fire protection, security devices)
  • Project timeline (new build vs retrofit)
