Improved extraction capabilities within UFED Ultimate give examiners intimate contact with data from locked and encrypted mobile devices, featuring new and exclusive tools that enable forensic examiners to:

In order to better address the needs of forensic examiners who also investigate cases or must support the investigative team with analysis or case review, Cellebrite is also introducing new usability improvements to Analytics Desktop. Updated features support additional media classification categories, UI improvements and a more streamlined workflow from UFED Physical Analyzer that will help examiners dig through data faster to surface and capture relevant evidence to help address growing areas of crime, such as homicide, terrorism, border security, organized crime, and child exploitation.

Digital forensic practitioners can now build stronger cases by deploying a UFED Pro Series solution that combines the powerful capabilities of UFED Ultimate, UFED Cloud Analyzer and Analytics Desktop to analyze data from multiple devices, public and private cloud and other digital sources.

“This new solution enables examiners to strengthen cases through superior access to more device and public social media data while ensuring that it is obtained in a forensically sound method. As agencies face growing challenges from encryption and backlog, the innovation and breadth of our UFED solutions help examiners access the inaccessible and streamline the lab workflow to help break more cases faster,” said Ron Serber, Global Co-CEO of Cellebrite.
