New ways to scale investigations with Graykey Fastrak
From urgent investigations to persistent device backlogs, digital forensic teams are constantly being asked to do more with the resources they have.
To help agencies scale mobile acquisition capacity when investigative demands increase, we introduced new ways to access Magnet Graykey Fastrak through online licensing options.
Adding scale to mobile acquisition
The newly updated Graykey 2 delivers significantly faster performance, but when combined with Magnet Graykey Fastrak it gives you the ability to exponentially scale mobile acquisition capacity and quickly collect evidence from multiple priority devices when time matters most.
The new Graykey 2 online licensing options make Graykey Fastrak more accessible than ever. Graykey 2 online credits can now be used for Graykey Fastrak extractions too — no additional purchase required. Premier licenses can also add unlimited Graykey Fastrak extractions, giving teams the flexibility to increase extraction capacity when investigative demands spike.
What is Graykey Fastrak?
With Graykey Fastrak, once your Graykey has gained initial access to a device, the extraction step can then be moved to another workstation, freeing up your Graykey to do what it does best — gain access to additional iOS and Android devices.
You can install the Graykey Fastrak extraction application directly onto your analysis workstations, including those in air-gapped environments, to remove unnecessary touchpoints and keep evidence flowing efficiently. The Graykey Fastrak application can also be installed on multiple workstations in the lab, helping your agency extend mobile acquisition capabilities across the entire team.
Applications for Graykey Fastrak
Priority devices
When priority devices arrive in your lab, Graykey Fastrak helps you collect evidence from multiple priority devices simultaneously, reducing acquisition delays when time-sensitive investigations demand immediate action.
They were able to use the information on those phones to walk a warrant through to get somebody in custody for firearms before they fled the state.”

Persistent backlogs
Many labs face massive mobile device backlogs, delaying time to evidence and risking the loss of critical time-sensitive insights that can make the difference in their cases, while also causing significant stress for lab staff.
By enabling multiple extractions to run simultaneously, Graykey Fastrak helps agencies process more devices in less time and reduce acquisition bottlenecks.
Graykey Fastrak was exactly what we needed as a department to get us out of the hole of never-ending phones in sight.”

Consent devices
When access to a device is granted through consent, you may have only a limited opportunity to collect evidence before the device must be returned or consent is withdrawn, requiring you to stop your examination.
Graykey Fastrak helps maximize limited consent windows by accelerating evidence acquisition to collect more data before access to the device is no longer available.
