Every mobile forensic investigative process begins with one critical step: gaining access to the device. Without it, vital evidence remains out of reach. For investigators, staying equipped with the latest extraction methods for new operating systems and device models is essential. That’s why MSAB’s Q3 2025 Release puts its premiere extraction tool, XRY Pro, at the forefront of this quarter’s release.
At the heart of XRY Pro’s development is BruteStorm Surge, a breakthrough brute-force solution that leverages GPU acceleration to unlock long and complex passwords in a matter of minutes1. A recent survey revealed that over half of MSAB users encounter complex passwords at least once a week – a challenge that delays access to critical mobile evidence. With BruteStorm Surge, investigators can now overcome these barriers faster and more efficiently than ever before.
“From AI to video games, GPUs have completely transformed what computers can do,” said Xavier Corbella Coll, Product Developer at MSAB. “With BruteStorm Surge, we’re bringing that same revolution of massively parallel processing to mobile forensics.”
BruteStorm Surge is available as an add-on license for XRY Pro.
This MSAB Q3 2025 Release sets a new standard for speed and performance in digital investigations. In addition, this Q3 2025 Release brings powerful enhancements across the MSAB Suite.
XRY 11.2: Automated brute-force for PINs and patterns now saves time with real-time progress tracking and enhanced support for child protection investigations via CRC hash detection.
