Four corporate investigation mistakes organizations make under pressure

A BlackBerry security executive outlines four common errors that organizations commit during the early stages of incident investigations, including treating the matter as purely technical rather than a business issue and mishandling chain of custody. The video emphasizes that actions taken before the forensic team arrives, such as granting access and initiating conversations, can compromise investigative integrity and regulatory standing.

Why it matters: Security leaders and incident responders need to understand pre-investigation mistakes that undermine forensic credibility and regulatory compliance, since the first hours determine whether findings hold up in legal and compliance reviews.
