Windows forensics: Understanding and analyzing Pagefile.sys artifacts
By Chad Gish Key insights The Windows pagefile.sys is a fundamental source of evidence in digital forensics investigations and incident response. When live RAM capture is unavailable, either due to a system shutdown, oversight, or other factors, this system-managed file can serve as the last resort for recovering critical memory-related evidence. Some examples of artifacts … Continued
Accelerating your vehicle investigations: Introducing Magnet Autokey
Modern vehicles contain a wealth of forensic evidence, but legacy solutions make accessing it too time-consuming, too risky, and too likely to damage the vehicle to be practical for many agencies. As vehicle infotainment systems grow more sophisticated, the value of that data — and the challenge of reaching it — only increases.
What’s new in Magnet Axiom 10.0: Smarter artifacts, faster insight, and stronger intelligence
Digital investigations continue to grow in scale and complexity, putting increased pressure on examiners to move faster while maintaining defensibility and analytical depth.
Building your public sector digital forensics lab
Digital forensics is as much about the hardworking people who bring their knowledge and experience to every case as it is about the technology. Having the right tools in place matters, but so do the processes, physical setup, and training that support them.
Bridging the air gap: Strengthening mobile workflows with Graykey Fastrak and Axiom Express Extraction
In many forensic labs, especially those operating in air-gapped or high security environments, critical time is lost to fragmented workflows.

Magnet Automate: Making backlogs disappear for good
Law enforcement and investigative teams are inundated with devices, data, and demands. Digital forensics labs are often overwhelmed, leaving critical evidence to languish in long queues and potentially compromising justice.

Mobile anti forensics and the impact on evidence recovery
This research explores a selection of anti-forensic mobile apps on Android and iOS using Magnet Axiom: Snapchat’s My Eyes Only, Samsung Secure Folder, SpoofCard, and Wasted (an Android panic-wipe app). Each application was installed on controlled test devices on both Android and iOS, populated with realistic data (photos, videos, calls, and messages), imaged, deleted, and imaged again. Analysis focused on the recoverability of stored artifacts, the effectiveness of built-in security or wipe mechanisms, and the potential countermeasures available to investigators.
