In cases of intellectual property infringement, the Swedish Enforcement Authority enforces, after a court order,  securing evidence on the spot with the defendant. Such an infringement investigation is enforced after the court has made an interim order and takes place without the defendant having any knowledge of this until it occurs. When the ordinance is executed, the Enforcement Authority has the right to use the coercive measures contained in the Enforcement Code. Securing evidence can refer to both digital and physical documents/materials to be copied, and/or disposed of/deleted. This is done by scanning digital storage media such as desktop and mobile computers, servers, tablets, mobile phones, etc. The court may also order the disposal and deletion of files, programs or source codes. Assignments may concern, for example, finding potential traces and evidence of criminal or unauthorized activity in electronic systems, devices or sources that exist on the market.
