Due to the rapid proliferation of technology, law enforcement agencies worldwide are suffering backlogs of digital evidence that must be processed and analyzed.
These delays translate directly into crimes unsolved for months and years, leaving criminals on the streets and victims in a state of permanent limbo.
But there’s hope for change with cutting edge digital forensics technology. The next generation of digital forensic technology, featuring artificial intelligence, automation, and cloud-based solutions, offers investigators the tools they need to eliminate delays, reduce backlogs, and deliver justice to the innocent and guilty alike.
Why Every Investigator Needs AI: Exterro’s Whitepaper Breaks It Down
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Leverage the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning to find case-breaking evidence faster and uncover hidden connections in large data sets.
- Search video and photographic evidence for clues like faces, guns, money, vehicles, explicit images and more with facial and object recognition.
- Translate foreign languages in FTK, eliminating delays and additional costs associated with translation.
- Help identify victims faster in CSAM investigations using AI from tools like Semantics 21, which help analyze and grade images and videos and feed collaborative hash databases like CAID and Project Vic.
“AI detection of explicit images provides a mental health shield for investigators by guarding against unnecessary exposure to graphic material during forensic review.” — Harsh Behl, Director of Product Management, FTK, Exterro
How Cutting-Edge Forensic Tools Are Changing The Game In Crime Investigations
AUTOMATION
Automate key elements of your digital forensic investigation workflow to reduce the burden on investigators and accelerate the time to case resolution.
- Create workflow automations easily with a drag and drop interface.
- Leverage off-hours processing power to preserve and process evidence for analysis by a forensic examiner.
- Use FTK Connect to create cases, assign users, process data, index files, run keyword searches, and filter and label data automatically.
“The work we’re doing with FTK enables investigators to get their eyes on a suspect’s information faster, more efficiently, with less delays. We can get someone prosecuted faster, so they’re out in the community for less time.” — Jon Cook, International Training Instructor, Exterro
CLOUD-BASED SOLUTIONS
Scale up for large investigations, gain flexibility, and unlock the power of collaboration with cloud-based processing and forensics software.
- Reduce administrative costs including hardware, support time, and travel with reliable 99.95% or higher guaranteed application uptime.
- Collaborate across distance, teams, and even locations with remote case review functionality from anywhere and any device.
- Scale up processing power to handle increased caseloads, data volumes, and review teams.
