In the fast-paced world of digital forensics, time and clarity are everything. That’s why we’re excited to announce the integration of Magnet Witness with the Magnet One Platform —bringing seamless video evidence collaboration directly into your DFIR workflow.
During an employee departure from an organization, whether through resignation, termination, or other separation, the stakes are high. Without a well-planned approach to data preservation and review, businesses face risks ranging from litigation and regulatory penalties to loss of intellectual property (IP) and exposure of sensitive data.
When business data is distributed across cloud platforms, remote endpoints, mobile devices, and virtual systems, organizations face complex challenges responding to litigation or regulatory events, such as legal holds for eDiscovery investigations. Legal teams must not only identify and preserve electronically stored information (ESI) but also ensure the authenticity, integrity, and defensibility of the evidence collected.
Early case assessment (ECA) is a critical first step in the eDiscovery process, one that directly influences cost, efficiency, and legal strategy. By conducting effective scoping at the outset, identifying which custodians, data sources, and timeframes are most relevant, organizations can reduce the volume of data collected, clarify legal exposure, and make informed decisions about whether to settle, negotiate, or proceed with litigation.
Keeping pace with increasing digital forensic demands requires efficient execution of evidence workflows. Magnet Automate can help you streamline the processes and tools that already work in your lab to reduce manual tasks, focus your team’s efforts, and reduce time to evidence.
Supply chain attacks are among the most dangerous threats in modern cyber operations — not because they exploit software flaws, but because they exploit trust.
