Canadian digital investigation solutions provider Magnet Forensics Inc., (TSX: MAGT) announced it has upgraded its Magnet REVIEW digital investigations tool and previewed new versions of Magnet AXIOM Cyber and Magnet AXIOM.
With the latest major release of Magnet REVIEW, users can now host the solution on an AWS cloud environment and increase scalability, security and ease of their digital investigations, as well as further synchronize investigations by reviewing tags and comments that were first made on digital evidence in Magnet AXIOM . Also, the new streamlined user interface allows users to simplify their investigations, Magnet Forensics said during its 2023 Magnet User Summit in Nashville, TN.
According to the company, the newest version of Magnet AXIOM Cyber 7.0 will enable enterprises to perform a robust analysis of memory for hidden threats on Windows systems with the integration of Comae Technologies’ memory analysis tools, simplify the investigative process by using a single agent to recover evidence from multiple endpoints at the same organization, and provide relationship linking for emails and attachments when exporting load files for eDiscovery applications.
Further on, the latest version of Magnet AXIOM will enable the company’s public safety users to leverage Thorn’s CSAM Image Classifier in combination with Magnet.AI to identify child sexual abuse material faster and limit investigators to its exposure. Also. it will allow to export tags and comments made on digital evidence into Magnet REVIEW to drive collaboration with detectives and prosecutors and solve challenges related to privileged material and only examine evidence that is within the scope of the investigation by tagging and excluding data based on a keyword list.
