Charles River Associates Auditor Profile

Charles River Associates (CRA) is a global economic and management consulting firm founded in 1965 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. The publicly traded firm employs well over a thousand professionals across offices worldwide.

CRA's Forensic Services practice, launched in 2015, focuses on cybersecurity and incident response, cybercrime and digital forensic investigations, and forensic accounting. The practice has advised on thousands of cyber incident response matters, including major global data breaches, and operates a digital forensics, eDiscovery, and incident response lab certified to ISO 27001 requirements.

CRA is best suited to enterprises, financial institutions, and legal counsel that need cyber risk assessment, breach investigation, and expert testimony from a firm with deep litigation and regulatory experience rather than routine certification audits.
