AccessData Releases Mobile Phone Examiner Plus and MPE+ Field Tablet Device

New "MPE +" Field Tablet Enables Instant Onsite Triage of Mobile Phones in the Field and Integrates Seamlessly with Forensic Toolkit^® (FTK^®) Computer Forensics Software

LINDON, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, AccessData announced the release of its new "Mobile Phone Examiner Plus" ("MPE+") software and preconfigured touch-screen field tablet. Both the MPE+ software-only solution and the tablet integrate seamlessly with Forensic Toolkit (FTK^®) computer forensics software. "Investigators can now see the evidence on the screen immediately after extraction, then easily add that evidence to a case within FTK for deeper analysis," remarked Lee Reiber, Director of Mobile Phone Forensics at AccessData.

“Investigators can now see the evidence on the screen immediately after extraction, then easily add that evidence to a case within FTK for deeper analysis”

AccessData's mobile phone forensics field tablet allows forensic examiners to conduct onsite phone acquisitions and view data on 2500+ handsets, including the embedded file systems. Having this information immediately available for on-scene triage will save time for the examiner back at the lab, while allowing law enforcement in the field to immediately secure the mobile phone evidence—unlocking locked handsets, previewing extracted data and safely creating a secure image. According to Reiber, because FTK is used by a majority of computer forensics examiners worldwide, the release of an FTK-compatible rugged tablet for field acquisition of seized mobile phones will be of great benefit to the industry.

The Mobile Phone Examiner Plus integration with Forensic Toolkit^® allows computer forensics examiners to forensically analyze mobile phone data within the FTK^® 3.x interface. The data can be parsed with FTK computer forensics software to recover not only user information, but files that no other mobile phone analysis software is currently able to recover and analyze. Examiners can seamlessly correlate phone evidence with computer evidence, and they can take advantage of the advanced reporting capabilities in FTK to detail phone data — call history, contacts, messages, photos, voice recordings, video files, calendar, tasks, notes and more.

Features of Mobile Phone Examiner Plus Software, include the following:

• Supports more than 2500 phones, because MPE+ enables viewing and acquisition of file systems on 80% of all CDMA handsets.
• Extracted data is stored in AD1 forensic container.
• AD1s can be imported back into MPE+ to view data as if the device is connected.
• Locate lock codes, EXIF and more.
• New and improved cable kit is also available.

Features of the Preconfigured MPE + Field Tablet include the following:

• Instant on-site triage
• Anti-glare screen
• Rugged design
• Shock resistant
• Water resistant
• Touch screen designed to work, even with heavy gloves on
