The 2.5 release came out with a list of new features that enhance and expand the capabilities of DFIR investigations. The E3 Forensic Platform is a single interface tool that can review data from a large variety of different digital sources to include, computers, smartphones, IoT, and Cloud.

With each of these data types digital evidence can be captured and processed to allow for investigations to quickly and easily review the information for the case impact. Windows artifacts are a valuable source of information in computer investigations and can help answer pertain questions quickly.  Paraben’s E3 Forensic Platform has multiple enhancements with new Windows artifacts for the activity timeline, jump lists and link files being supported. In addition, for those in the incident response arena the new Incident Response Triage features allows quick review of areas that impact those investigations such as autorun functions, windows services, dump files, temp locations, shutdown times, and more. This new triage category is processed in under 10 minutes without full file system processing. This quick process is one of the many enhanced features inside the E3 Forensic Platform. 

We are excited to offer so many new features in the 2.5 release that are going to help our customers offer more data options to their cases. With quick triage and new options for iOS allowing more data recovery we are excited to have this release available in such a unique time in the world.

Also, in the 2.5 release is the popular iOS exploit of checkra1n that allows new access to the iOS file system to increase the value of mobile data that can be reviewed in an investigation. Other mobile enhancements include support of the Cellebrite UFED iOS data and support of MDMs with iOS devices.

The variety of support by the E3 Forensic Platform is part of what makes it so valuable in any lab environment. Support for the largest variety of digital data with a flexible pricing model that allows for it to fill all the gaps of other tools or be the primary platform in the lab lets you know that E3 is Efficient, Effective, and Easy to use in any DFIR or eDiscovery lab.
