Triage-Investigator
Triage Investigator has been designed for field triage requirements. It is primarily used by investigators with limited digital forensic training in running the tool (basic mode only). This basic user mode allows for ease-of-use and limits user risk. Triage-Investigator also offers separate authentication and collection keys which allows users to scan multiple computers simultaneously, which can be particularly useful for on-scene investigations. Triage-Investigator does not offer stealth mode during live scans, advanced search configurations, or the ability to switch to advanced mode.
Rapid Evidence collections, analysis & reporting
Triage-Investigator is ADF's award-winning intelligent forensic triage tool designed for field deployment with Digital Evidence Investigator. The software has a proven track record of providing easy and quick access to court defendable evidence to process cases and leveraging investigators to assist forensic labs with rapid collection, analysis, reporting, and managing digital backlogs.
Triage-Investigator® is easy-to-use, easily configurable, supports a wide array of computer hardware, has powerful boot capabilities, is forensically sound, and comes with technical support and regular upgrades.
Automated / easy-to-learn and deploy with rapid artifact & file collection using out-of-the-box forensic scans
Deploy with to import custom Search Profiles
Standalone Report Viewer (share with prosecutors!)
Digital Forensic Platform
Triage-Investigator is designed to work with Digital Evidence Investigator® (DEI) and provide a digital forensic platform where forensic labs can leverage investigators to collect and process data and analyse computers and digital devices in the field. The ADF digital forensic platform enables an organisation to control search criteria used in the field. DEI with Triage-Investigator enables organisations to roll out digital forensic software to the field quickly with minimal training and confidence that forensic integrity will be maintained during collection, analysis and reporting.
Triage-Investigator® Key Features
Triage-Investigator can also be licensed to a computer instead of a physical Authentication Key (dongle) as an option.
