Europol will host its third Industry and Research Days on 25-26 February 2026 at The Hague headquarters, bringing together private companies, universities, and research institutes to present innovations in AI-enhanced capabilities, quantum-resistant solutions, and next-generation digital forensics tools. The event …
Law enforcement agencies report 600% increase in audio and video evidence over five years, with even minor misdemeanours generating terabytes of digital data. Body-worn cameras, HALO surveillance, Flock cameras, cell phone data, and vehicle tracking create storage and processing challenges.
Digital investigations enter new era shaped by remote acquisition, app-centric evidence, and AI-enhanced analysis. By 2026, forensics will be defined by app-aware, remote, and targeted acquisition strategies, with rural investigators teaming remotely with city and state police for secure evidence …
Digital forensics faces fundamental shift as adversaries construct, poison, and manipulate evidence using AI automation at scale. Attackers modify log entries, alter timestamps, fabricate authentication events, and rewrite metadata to evade detection systems.
New inactivity reboot features in iOS and Android automatically restart locked devices after set periods, undermining assumptions that seized phones remain stable while warrants are obtained. The shift raises stakes for first responders and examiners as poorly timed reboots can …
South Korea Personal Information Protection Commission has opened a Digital Forensic Center in Seoul to professionally collect, analyse and preserve evidence from major breaches. Built over 11 months with 1.6 billion won investment, the facility allows investigators to directly image …
As 2025 draws to a close, forensic experts reflect on a year where cellphone data emerged as the linchpin in high-profile cases providing location tracking, messages and timelines. Experts call phones crime scenes in your pocket, though privacy concerns and …
Forensic Focus reports that Freedom of Information responses from 36 UK police forces reveal uneven adoption of Oscar Kilo Enhanced Occupational Health Standards, with only one-third fully implementing enhanced frameworks for Digital Forensic Investigators. New inactivity reboot features in iOS …
The Government of Odisha in India announced plans on 10 December 2025 to equip 34 cyber police stations with dedicated cyber forensic laboratories. The initiative aims to expand local capacity for analysing seized devices and digital evidence from growing online …
Horizon Europe-funded SALUS project is developing IoT forensic investigation schemes and tools for law enforcement to address security challenges. The project combines digital twin infrastructure, Software Defined Network architecture (SDaaSS), and AI-powered forensic capabilities with blockchain-based chain of custody.
