COMMON USE CASES
Establishing Movements
Application data and Wi-Fi network connections are two common ways to determine where someone has been. Analyzed over a period of time, they create a comprehensive view of commutes, habits, and more.
Distracted Driving
Often a lingering question in collision matters. Data can reveal which applications were open at the time of impact, when a message was sent or viewed, and even the lock status and orientation of the device.
File Authentication
In an ever-online world, photos, videos, and other files are frequently offered as evidence. Examinations can confirm when and where a file was created, and whether the version being offered is a true and accurate copy of the original.
