Both iOS and Android are known to keep multiple copies of certain data, but the reason why isn’t always the same. Not all copies are created equal! In this episode of Mobile Unpacked, we will explore why data gets duplicated across both iOS and Android and how those duplicates can be ignored or crucial to your investigation.
As more digital activity migrates to the cloud, investigators need to adjust their legal processes to align with the realities of online data storage. In this episode of Legal Unpacked, Justin Fitzsimmons will examine how to draft effective search warrants for cloud-based data, including the need to understand the types of user information providers actually collect and store.
You’ll learn the importance of reviewing and preserving key service documents, including terms of service, privacy policies, cookie policies, and screenshots of provider-facing dashboards or archive tools, to demonstrate what data exists and how the companies retain it.
There will also be an emphasis on defining, with precision, the types of data relevant to the investigation and supporting each request with the information courts expect: a clear explanation of the specific data sought, how that data is generated through user or system activity, where it resides within the provider’s infrastructure, why it is relevant to proving elements of the offense, and how it may help attribute the activity to a specific user. This approach provides a practical framework for satisfying the requirements of probable cause and particularity, while making your request intelligible and credible to both courts and service providers.
Artificial intelligence is increasingly being invoked in child exploitation cases as a defense strategy, with claims that images are AI-generated, deepfakes, and that no real child is being depicted—all to create confusion and undermine proof.
Artificial intelligence is increasingly becoming a regular part of our daily lives—including modern criminal prosecutions and courtroom practice.
In this episode of Legal Unpacked, Justin Fitzsimmons introduces a clear three-dimensional AI framework for lawyers, distinguishing capabilities, tools, and applications, and explaining the current reality of narrow AI that drives most systems in use today.
Prosecutors will gain a practical understanding of generative AI, including how it creates content, where it fails, and why documented breakdowns in the legal profession matter for credibility and risk assessment.
The presentation also addresses the ethical and professional responsibilities associated with AI-assisted work and provides a structured approach for evaluating when and how generative AI may be used responsibly in prosecutorial functions.
The session concludes by grounding generative AI–created trial exhibits in evidentiary foundations, focusing on authenticity, reliability, and admissibility in court.
Air‑gapped forensic labs are essential for protecting sensitive evidence—but that isolation often slows investigations. As mobile devices increase in volume and complexity, fragmented workflows and manual evidence transfer can create costly bottlenecks.
In this webinar, learn how modern mobile forensics teams are bridging the air gap without compromising security. Drawing on real‑world law enforcement lab workflows, we’ll explore how combining Graykey with Magnet Forensics mobile solutions enables faster extractions, streamlined processing, and scalable collaboration entirely within an offline environment.
See how Axiom Express Extraction, Graykey Fastrak, and automated processing workflows help labs free up access devices, run simultaneous extractions across multiple workstations, and deliver analysis‑ready mobile evidence faster—while preserving the integrity of an air‑gapped lab. Whether you’re tackling backlogs or planning to scale, this session shows how to unlock speed, efficiency, and confidence across your mobile forensics workflow.
In a world where manipulated media can distort truth and damage reputations resulting in significant financial costs, verifying media authenticity has become essential for every organization. Magnet Verify is a purpose-built media authentication solution that gives corporate investigative teams unprecedented confidence in the legitimacy of images and videos. From internal fraud to brand protection, hear how Magnet Verify’s patented approach can not only identify synthetic and manipulated media but prove authenticity when it matters most.
AI adoption is accelerating. Cyber incidents continue to dominate workloads. Mobile evidence is harder to access than ever. And investigative toolkits are growing—often faster than teams can integrate them. The result? A DFIR landscape that’s more powerful, more complex, and under increasing pressure.
Based on findings from the 2026 State of Enterprise DFIR Report, this webinar breaks down the realities facing modern investigation teams and the strategic shifts underway across the private sector.
We’ll unpack the four defining trends shaping enterprise DFIR today:
The dual impact of AI as both a force multiplier and a threat vector,
Why real-time collaboration has become a critical driver of SaaS adoption,
The increasing complexity of mobile evidence, and
The operational pressure created by fragmented investigative tools.
Backed by survey data from private sector DFIR professionals, we’ll examine what’s changing, why it matters now, and how organizations can prepare their teams to investigate with confidence in 2026 and beyond.
Join us for this panel discussion with some of the expert contributors from the report.
Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) investigations are evolving rapidly, driven by growing volumes of mixed media, increasing cross-agency coordination needs, and emerging synthetic content that complicates triage.
Effective, fast, and precise incident response is a team effort.
