Accessing & extracting data

Background

The challenges

The solution

  • I can’t get to the information I need because of advanced security measures.
  • There are overwhelming amounts of data to sift through.
  • I can’t share and collaborate on mobile evidence with investigators fast enough.

Modern digital investigation tools can access and preserve critical evidence, gain visibility into encrypted data, and provide same-day access to the latest iOS and Android devices.

“We’re competing against Apple and Samsung and the barriers they put up to protect the data inside the phones.”

Eric Haines

Digital Forensics Supervisor, Florida Agency

Agencies are tackling the sheer volume of data by using solutions that let them process multiple devices at the same time.

“The phones are getting tremendously larger, which means we’re spending more time on one.”

Processing & analyzing evidence

Background

The challenges

The solution

  • With so much data, I need to know that I’m getting all the necessary evidence.
  • I don’t know if the digital evidence I’m gathering is relevant.
  • Processing evidence is too manual and time-consuming.

Modern tools can identify the types of data you want to collectโ€”including encrypted and hidden informationโ€”then analyze and preserve it to move investigations forward quickly.

“If you’re only getting the phone, you’re only getting 50 per cent of the data.”

Jan Norman, Assistant District

Attorney, Nashville, Tennessee

AI-powered tools help surface and analyze critical and relevant evidence fasterโ€”while preserving evidence integrity.

“Time is of the essenceโ€”especially the first 48 hours. It’s critical to instantly know which ones have pertinent information.”

Jan Norman, Assistant District

Attorney, Nashville, Tennessee

Automation allows digital forensic tools to process data even when examiners are not in the lab, saving precious time that should be spent analyzing evidence.

“It makes my job as an examiner easier because I don’t have any backlog and I can spend more time on analysis.”

Investigating media

Background

The challenges

The solution

  • Volumes of media in disturbing cases are leading to trauma and burnout.
  • Not knowing if media is real or fake is threatening the credibility of my cases.
  • The volume and variety of media evidence is overwhelming for the team.

Tools with safeguards that remove repetitive media, limit sensory impact, and automatically categorize critical evidence help protect teams’ mental health when reviewing disturbing evidence.

“It helps with longevity, for them to stay within the unit so they’re not being traumatized over and over again.”

Dean Jacobs, Detective,

Calgary Police

Solutions that not only confirm the authenticity of a file but preserve all the relevant data (such as metadata) ensure evidence stands up to forensic and legal scrutiny.

“You read it and then you can dig in depth on the signature and the structure of the video to understand it even more.”

Travis Blank, Tournament

Director, The Aim Games

Tools that categorize and tag evidence allow teams to quickly surface relevant findings faster and improve evidence sharing.

Video

“Every workflow, everything they bookmark, or tag is all savedโ€ฆit’s an invaluable tool.”

Sharing & collaborating on cases

Background

The challenges

The solution

  • Inefficiencies in my team’s workflow are creating delays.
  • It’s difficult to collaborate with non-technical users.
  • If there’s a delay in the lab, it leads to stalls for investigators.

Using automation to replace manual handoffs and processing bottlenecks allows teams to share evidence quickly and improve collaboration.

Video

“Removing the need to be at your computer when an extraction finishes to start processing saves hours and hours.”

Nick Norton, Detective,

Citrus County Sheriff’s Office

With intuitive cloud-based solutions, digital evidence can be easily accessible, understood, and shared with non-technical stakeholders.

“It’s important for me to make sure my detectives are provided with tools, and leadership is informed.”

Chris Brennan, Detective,

Metro Nashville Police Department

Once relevant evidence has been surfaced, it can immediately be shared with the wider team through a cloud-based review solutionโ€”allowing non-technical users to work in parallel to close cases faster.

“It also makes the job for the investigator easier because they’re getting evidence back faster, before cases are going to pretrial.”
