Cellebrite Digital Collector
The data stored on computers can play an important role in capturing the full picture when investigating computer-based or computer-facilitated crime such as cybercrime. Computers may contain evidence in the form of e-mails, internet history, documents or other files. Even metadata can help in solving crime cases like murder, kidnapping, fraud and drug trafficking.
Cellebrite Digital Collector (formerly known as MacQuisition) is a reliable computer forensics solution that helps digital investigators collect, analyse, and report digital evidence in a forensically sound manner. This powerful imager can perform triage, live data acquisition and targeted data collection for Windows and Mac computers both in the lab and in the field. It is the only solution that performs both live and dead box imaging for Windows and Mac.
