Laminar Flow Cabinets – Definition

The usage of Laminar Flow Cabinets is mandatory while performing data recovery procedures on hard drives with severe mechanical damage.

Platters, the most important part of a hard drive, are very sensitive to dust particles which may stick to the surface. This can cause head crash which will most certainly leave the scratches and destroy the surface.

In order to prevent this, all companies which produce hard drives have clean rooms and cabinets inside their facilities. Beside this, they have strict lab equipment policy which ensures dust free environment.

Laminar cabinets, or cabinets with laminar air flow, represent laboratory equipment that serves to perform certain analyses of samples and activities on materials that are very sensitive to microparticles or can be dangerous to humans and the environment.

Each cabinet has its own suction, filtering, ducting and disposal system.

Depending on the combinations of these systems, a rough categorisation is made to cabinets with horizontal and vertical air currents.

Horizontal flow means that the air is directed to the operator, while the vertical flow is directed directly to the subject matter.

Also, cabinets can be with open or closed workspace. Closed space is used when the subject of work is some dangerous substance, virus, agent, etc.

In the next news item we will explain the working principle of the laminar flow cabinets further, as well as data recovery benefits of using them.

AI In CSAM Investigations And The Role Of Digital Evidence In Criminal Cases

Forensic Focus 22nd March 2023 12:44 pm

Throughout the past few years, the way employees communicate with each other has changed forever.

69% of employees note that the number of business applications they use at work has increased during the pandemic.

Desk phones, LAN lines and even VOIP have become technologies of the past workplace environment as employees turn to cloud applications on their computers and phones to collaborate with each other in today’s workplace environment.

Whether it’s conversations in Teams, file uploads in Slack chats, or confidential documents stored in Office 365, the amount of data stored and where it is stored, is growing quicker than IT and systems administrators can keep up with.

Corporate investigators and eDiscovery professionals need to seamlessly collect relevant data from cloud sources and accelerate the time to investigative and discovery review.

With the latest in Cellebrite’s remote collection suite of capabilities, investigators and legal professionals can benefit from secure collection with targeted capabilities for the most used workplace applications.

Join Monica Harris, Product Business Manager, as she showcases how investigators can:

- Manage multiple cloud collections through a web interface
- Cull data prior to collection to save time and money by gaining these valuable insights of the data available
- Collect data from the fastest growing cloud collaboration applications like Office365, Google Workspace, Slack and Box
- Login to a single source for workplace app collection without logging into every app and pulling data from multiple sources for every employee
- Utilize a single unified collection workflow for computer, mobile and workplace cloud applications without the need to purchase multiple tools for different types of collections – a solution unique to Cellebrite’s enterprise solution capabilities
