Tackling a Major Challenge

Digital evidence’s role in criminal cases is monumental—Forensic Science International cites that it’s a factor in around 90% of cases. As the world embraces digitization, complexity surges alongside data volumes.

And for child exploitation, that’s a challenge that must be met.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) operates the CyberTipline®, a national mechanism in the United States to report instances of suspected child sexual exploitation. In 2022 alone, NCMEC received more than 32 million reports. The acquisition of Griffeye by Magnet Forensics will help in addressing these kinds of horrific crimes in a timely and accurate manner for users that need easy-to-use, innovative technology designed to handle modern demands.
