Software class action expert witnesses for consumer software defects and privacy matters. Forensic analysis, code review, expert reports, and testimony.
Cyberonix provides independent, technically rigorous expert witness support in software‑related class actions, including matters involving consumer product defects and privacy issues tied to software behavior.
We help counsel and the court understand how the technology actually works: what the software does, what data it collects or transmits, and whether the alleged conduct is consistent across versions, devices, and user settings.
Services We Provide
- Evaluate case materials (complaints, disclosures, product specs, update history)
- Review and analyze software artifacts (source code, binaries, SDKs, configuration files, telemetry schemas)
- Conduct forensic analysis of digital products (device/app behavior testing, network traffic, logging, reproducible environments, webpage history)
- Prepare and present technical tutorials for the court (plain‑language explanations of complex systems)
- Expert reports (class certification and merits)
- Deposition and trial testimony
Evidence We Commonly Review
- Source repositories (Git/Subversion; commit history, tags/releases, branches)
