Insider Threat & Employee Misconduct Investigations

When an employee, contractor or partner misuses their access, the damage can be serious and the investigation has to be handled carefully. Diligent Eye PI conducts discreet insider threat and employee misconduct investigations for Jacksonville and Florida businesses, working alongside your HR, legal and IT/security teams to establish the facts.

What We Investigate

  • Theft or unauthorized sharing of confidential data and trade secrets
  • Employee fraud, embezzlement and expense abuse
  • Conflicts of interest and undisclosed outside business
  • Policy violations and workplace misconduct
  • Workers’ compensation and leave abuse
  • Background investigations on employees, vendors and partners

How We Help

We start by scoping the concern with your leadership or counsel. We then review the information you lawfully provide, conduct background and OSINT research, perform surveillance where appropriate, interview witnesses and persons suspected of misconduct, and analyze relationships and transactions using i2 Analyst’s Notebook and Maltego. Findings are delivered in a clear written report suitable for HR action, litigation or a referral to law enforcement.

Florida is an all-party consent state for recording conversations. We do not secretly record conversations, and our work stays within Florida law and your company’s own policies. Review of company systems and devices is done by your IT team or coordinated with qualified forensic partners.

  • HR and compliance departments
  • IT and security teams

Frequently Asked Questions

Will employees know they are being investigated?

We work discreetly and only share information with the people you authorize.

Can you record conversations with employees?

Not secretly. Florida requires the consent of all parties to record a conversation, and we follow that law.

Can you look through an employee’s email or computer?

We don’t access accounts ourselves. Company-owned systems are reviewed by your IT team or qualified forensic partners, consistent with your policies and legal advice.

Do you work with our attorney?

Yes, and we often recommend involving counsel early.
