Belkasoft and AccessData Integrate Their Products Into FTK 6.3

AccessData and Belkasoft announce the release of Forensic Toolkit (FTK) with Belkasoft-made built-in analytics core.

NOVEMBER 13, 2017 – AccessData and Belkasoft, two worldwide leaders in digital forensics, joined their forces to deliver the most comprehensive toolkit for acquiring and analysing digital evidence. The updated Forensic Toolkit (FTK) v.6.3 integrates Belkasoft-made analytics core, delivering an all-in-one product extracting a wider range of evidence than older FTK builds. The new tool is aimed at forensic experts, law enforcement and police forces, IT security departments and specialists who work to prevent crime against children.

Users of the latest version of FTK gain the ability to utilize Belkasoft’s expertise in data carving, extraction and analysis. FTK users will be able to discover and analyze a wide range of digital artefacts extracted from mobile and desktop devices, including deep analysis of SQLite records and access to deleted information.

“Belkasoft is proud of this integration”, says Yuri Gubanov, Belkasoft CEO. “We worked very hard for this to happen, spending countless hours to polish every little thing and deliver a high-quality result, especially to ensure seamless operation in clusters and distributed environments. We put a high value to our relationship with AccessData, and consider the partnership as a seal of quality. Our valued customers will undoubtedly benefit from this integration partnership, receiving a range of extra capabilities making their job easier.”

“FTK and AD Lab users can now gain seamless access to nearly 200 additional mobile parsers through an add-on purchase, thanks to our expanded technology partnership with Belkasoft Evidence Center,” said Victor Limongelli, chief executive officer of AccessData. "This allows users to analyze data from popular mobile apps – such as WhatsApp and Facebook – to add more color and context to their investigations."

About Belkasoft Evidence Center

Belkasoft Evidence Center is a world-renowned tool used by thousands of customers for conducting computer, mobile and cloud digital forensic investigations. Belkasoft Evidence Center can automatically discover, extract and analyze evidence from a wide range of sources including computer hard drives and disk images in all popular formats, memory dumps, mobile backups, JTAG and chip-off dumps, and various cloud services. The tool can capture and analyze volatile evidence stored in the computer’s RAM, identify encrypted files, carve Internet chat logs, Web browsing history and email communications including information stored in digital pictures and videos. The ability to process office documents in a wide range of formats enables investigators to perform near-instant full-text search among all the documents discovered on the suspect’s PC.

Low-level access to hard disk and system structures means that even data that has been deleted by the suspect cannot escape from investigators.
