We are happy to announce the release of Magnet AXIOM 7.3. This latest version introduces several new features to help make your digital evidence analysis and reporting faster and easier, along with several new and updated artefacts.
You can upgrade to the latest version within AXIOM or over at the Magnet Forensics Customer Portal. Or, if you haven’t tried AXIOM yet, request a free trial here.
Quickly Preview Video Files
With the volumes of video data involved in the typical investigation rapidly growing, examiners need tools to help them quickly triage these files to find the evidence required.
With AXIOM 7.3, Magnet Forensics enables previewing videos in a thumbnail view via a mouse-over when displayed in either AXIOM Examine or a Portable Case. This feature can be handy when triaging large amounts of videos—examiners can quickly scroll through successive videos without opening the file itself, saving considerable time and effort.
View Multiple iOS Home Screen Wallpapers
With AXIOM 7.3, examiners can now see all of the custom home screen and lock screen wallpapers set by a user on iOS devices, conveniently displayed as part of the device overview information listed in the Evidence Dashboard for quick viewing.
Easily Exclude Privileged Materials From Exports
In digital forensics, privileged material refers to sensitive data that requires special handling and protection to ensure its confidentiality and integrity. This can include privileged communications between attorneys and clients, medical records, and other confidential information. Maintaining the chain of custody and ensuring that this privileged material is protected throughout the forensic investigation is critical. “Tainted Material” can jeopardize or introduce significant delays in cases where suspects can claim their digital devices contain privileged material.
Building on the privileged materials workflow introduced with AXIOM 7.0—which enables you to conduct a broad search using a set of keywords and automatically tagging any matching artefacts—AXIOM 7.3 now includes a new option that allows you to easily exclude artefacts tagged as privileged when exporting a report. This will allow you to easily filter out privileged materials before sharing reports and other exports with your stakeholders, reducing manual effort and helping to ensure that any privileged materials are protected.
