So we put out no less than 12 major releases and other 12 minor releases. But I do think that really, we take a lot of the - even what our customers are looking for, what we see, and really trying to focus on how we’re always making the world a safer place by giving people tools that they can go in and immediately see the results of that. You know that things change so, so often, whether it be on the computer side, the mobile side, the cloud side - kind of keeping up with the Joneses. Do you think that it’s fair to say that all of that is the result of giving people that latitude? That was something that stuck out, is just the amount that was listed in there. It’s not just the funnel where they’re just doing their day to day job, but they’re actually innovating for the company, whether they be in marketing, support or on with the management.Ĭhrista: So, yeah, I noticed that, reading through Oxygen’s six month checkup post a few months ago. I really think that this would be really cool to have within the application.” And then all of a sudden it comes out. They’re not that, “This is what you need to do.” It’s more a collective thought process because when you allow people to feel as if they’re a part of the process, they should be.Īnd so in doing that, I want to make sure that I have those managers and the employees that want to do that, want to grow, want to see all of a sudden, “Hey, wow, this marketing idea that I came up with is now, I see it out in the world.” Or here’s this employee, or even our support guys say, “Hey, you know what? We get a lot of people with these requests. I try to, when I explain to people that are, that are coming in or what I’m looking for in an employee, it’s really someone who can think for themselves, come up with some great ideas.Īnd then on the management side, making sure that manager understands that they’re not the chief. And I think the important part, again, is making sure that someone feels as if they’re contributing, giving them the ability to come up with ideas, whether it’s their second day, their first day.

Helps them be productive, allow them - and I think the growth at Oxygen has come from allowing people to grow themselves, not telling them what to do, but helping them to build the company as, again, a family.Ĭhrista: So - give us some examples of how you’re doing that, because I think that’s something that a lot of listeners could really learn from in terms of not just as, if they’re managers, how to help their employees out, and then also as employees, what to look for if they’re looking for work. We all fail, we succeed, everything is together.Īnd so growing from just a few people to expanding our office to about 10,000 square feet just in Alexandria from just a little closet, just to make sure that one, we have the room, we have the people and continue to make them happy, because obviously, happy employees - especially during a lot of the things that have been going on for the last couple of years - is a good thing.


And I think that what I’m really most proud of right now is we’ve become such a - kind of more, I wanted to make it family-type as a team. And then also into computer forensics, but honestly, the growth that we have had in just the six years that I’ve been with Oxygen has been tremendous. I’ve been doing it for awhile on the mobile forensics side of it. Time flies, I guess, when you’re having fun. Tell us what’s changed for you since you came on board as COO, and what are you proudest of in particular? So it’s been a few years since we last interviewed you, and even a year since you and I talked on your podcast. Good to see you again, as always.Ĭhrista: Yeah. I’m your host, Christa Miller, and welcome Lee. Today on the Forensic Focus podcast, we’re joined by Lee Reiber, chief operating officer at Oxygen Forensics, here to talk with us about many of those changes and more. As the field diversifies to include cloud storage encryption and the internet of things, digital forensics evolution is only as good as the tools that can keep up. Christa: Increasingly mobile forensics isn’t just about devices.
