 Bryan Gorczyk founded Forensic Concepts LLC
following a lifelong career in law enforcement, capped by a 20
year career as a FBI Special Agent. Prior to his service to the
FBI, Mr. Gorczyk was a Special Agent for the Naval Investigative
Service branch of Naval Intelligence (now NCIS), a United States
Army Military Police Officer and a Police Officer for the City
of Independence, Ohio.
Mr. Gorczyk spent the majority of his career with the FBI
assigned to the New York Office, the FBI's largest. Prior to
obtaining expertise in the field of digital forensics, Mr.
Gorczyk was assigned to the FBI's White Collar Crime Branch,
where he directed major investigations involving public
corruption, major frauds and securities frauds. Among the
matters he investigated was a massive securities fraud which
involved the falsification of billions of dollars of illegal
bids in the multi trillion-dollar Treasury market. This
investigation resulted in multiple convictions and a record
settlement to the Government of approximately $300 million. In
another landmark investigation, the RICO statute was used for
the first time to prosecute individuals involved in the bribery
of Government officials. This matter also resulted in multiple
convictions and in the forfeiture of millions of dollars to the
Government. He also gained expertise in computer crimes
investigations, and formed the New York Office's computer crimes
squad, one of the first three formed by the FBI in the 1990s.
Mr. Gorczyk was among the first Agents to be certified by the
FBI Laboratory as Forensic Examiners of Computer Evidence when
the FBI's computer forensic program was in its infancy. He went
on to develop the New York Office's computer forensic program,
the Computer Analysis and Response Team (CART), and built a
state of the art digital forensic lab. When he retired, Mr.
Gorczyk was managing the New York Office CART, a staff of
Special Agent and professional support Examiners and a caseload
of hundreds of examinations per year.
Among the matters in which Mr. Gorczyk personally conducted
forensic examinations are the first and second attacks upon the
World Trade Center, the attacks upon the United States Embassies
in Tanzania and Kenya, and U.S. v. Richard Reid, aka the ‘Shoe
Bomber’. The most notable of Mr. Gorczyk's examinations involved
an analysis of computers used by senior al Qaeda members and the
principal planners of the September 11th attacks.
Mr. Gorczyk has lectured at the FBI Academy, the National
College of District Attorneys, George Washington University and
other academic institutions. He continues to teach
computer forensics to FBI Examiners throughout the country, as
well as to military Special Operations forces, such as Navy
Seals and Army Special Forces (Green Berets), deployed overseas
fighting the war on terror. |
