Eliminating Backlogs And Fast-Tracking Investigations With Detego Global’s Cutting-Edge Technology

Whether in the corporate sector, law enforcement or the military, the challenges faced by digital forensics investigators can be all too common. In today’s complex environment, investigators need to rapidly extract and analyse data from an overwhelming number of digital devices, sift through massive amounts of data to pinpoint critical evidence and manage the challenges brought about by the limited availability of resources.

Even organisations with access to the right talent struggle to leverage the right tools – often leading to larger backlogs and delays. Many teams still rely on time-consuming data extraction and analytical processes and depend on specialist labs – making the path to justice difficult to navigate.

Luckily, overcoming these issues could be simpler than you think.

The Solution for Streamlined Digital Forensics Investigations

Detego Global, the company behind the award-winning Unified Digital Forensics Platform, has built its ecosystem specifically to tackle the complexities that today’s investigators face. Working hand-in-hand with investigators in the military, law enforcement, corporate sector and intelligence agencies, Detego Global has created a four-pronged approach to fast-tracking investigations.

This streamlined strategy, known as the REAA model, overcomes common challenges through:

  • R: Rapid data extraction: Detego Global has developed rapid forensic imaging tools to enable investigators to securely collect data – drastically reducing the resources and time taken to collect and process information. The company also has patents for the world’s fastest forensic imaging tool (capable of imaging 1 TB in under 8 minutes) and continues to build on its successes in this field.
  • E: Enabling on-scene investigations: Labs aren’t always available for rapid digital forensics investigations. Detego Global’s tools are therefore developed to support lab-based agents and front-line teams alike. The use of guided menus and an intuitive user interface means that even non-technical front-line agents can use this technology to carry out forensically sound investigations with a 30-minute training – this, in turn, helps reduce the strain on specialist teams and labs.
  • A: Automation: The Detego platform has automation at its core. Advanced AI-powered workflow automation and machine learning capabilities help users automate time-consuming tasks such as data acquisition, triage, analysis and link building so that investigators can focus on building strong cases.
  • A: AI-powered analytics: When investigations involve sifting through massive volumes of data, Detego Global’s AI-powered analytical tools can help investigators rapidly scan data and identify, classify and highlight critical information. With features such as OCR, Photo DNA, hash matching, instant decryption of passwords and more, Detego Global’s tools are designed to help investigators to access the data they need, fast.

Addressing Complex Challenges: The Detego Global approach

Based on the four pillars mentioned above, Detego Global has built a comprehensive ecosystem for digital investigations. In addition to being one of the most reputable platforms used by leading investigators around the globe, it is constantly updated to help investigators to stay ahead of the curve. Detego Global’s team is committed to continually building on its success, enhancing each solution in the platform.
