Product Features

Confidently Discard Computers From Backlogs

Triage-Examiner is a forensically sound tool that is run by forensic examiners directly on suspect computers. This triage can identify and eliminate negative computers with the same degree of confidence as can full forensic examinations. Given that on average three out of four computers processed are negative, Triage-Examiner can eliminate 70% of incoming computers in a fraction of the time and using fewer resources.


Using Triage-Examiner

Prior to running a triage scan, a Search Profile is created that defines what information to collect and what evidence to search for on the suspect computers. The Triage Key is then prepared with the triage application and the Search Profile. The scan is executed on a powered-on (live) or powered-off (boot) computer with the Triage Key. Triage-Examiner utilizes the computer as a review station to display the results in real time.
