Garrett Discovery Inc. is a United States-based firm specializing in digital forensics, established in 2007. The company gained recognition for its examination of a telephone exchange involving former Pakistani Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar.
History
Originally launched in 2003 under the name Technology Consultants of America by Andrew Garrett—who previously worked at the Naval Research Laboratory and Stennis Space Center—the organization adopted the Garrett Discovery Inc. name and incorporated in Illinois in 2007. The corporate headquarters were moved to Orlando, Florida, in 2020.
In 2021, FactFocus.com engaged Garrett Discovery to perform forensic analysis on a phone call between ex-Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar and an unknown party. The firm authenticated the recording as genuine and unaltered, which subsequently led to legal and criminal intimidation attempts. The dialogue implied that judicial rulings were subject to external pressures from political leaders such as Nawaz Sharif and Imran Khan.
In 2022, Garrett Discovery provided mobile device forensic services related to the alleged sexual assault case involving American rapper Mystikal. Additionally, the company authenticated that a widely circulated video, claiming to depict Elon Musk terminating Twitter executive Vijaya Gadde, was a manipulated compilation of separate clips.
